What do you do, first?

This might really screw with people's perceptions, but going to bed could be the thing that gets you screwed over.

Let's say that it is a HUGE power out, like in the Blackout program. The local scroats realise what's going on and start going a bit nuts in the area. Okay MB lives in a quiet area, but BP you live on the side of a council estate, and as you say don't have many friends in the area. Going to bed is the kind of thing that will leave you vulnerable. Your alarm may not be working, and your security lights in your garden or front of house are not going to work either.

Going to bed seems to be a dangerous thing to do.
