Power Down Wakeup Call
I was one of the 200,000 people affected by the Scotland-wide power outage this evening. We lost power for around 2.5 hours.

Good news:
- Rayburn worked well, giving heating, hot water and a kettle for coffee
- emergency light / grab-torch came on as required

Not so good news:
- I realised I've no idea where my head torch is, and it would have been useful
- I have a leisure battery and 300w inverter for these types of situation, but the battery wasn't fully charged.

7/10 must try harder!
Find a resilient place and way to live, then sit back and watch a momentous period in history unfold.
