Isabelle   10 #11 Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Mine was off from about 6.15pm til 12.45am, but I think it has varied. The house next to me has had power all night it seems because their lights have been on. The streetlights were off at half 5 when I got home and some houses I think. The fault was first reported at about 4pm they said when I rang. Edited January 10, 2013 by Isabelle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
