A short trip into the past

[linda_joyce]

Thanks to a 3 hour power cut I've just had a taste of my Grandparents life when they moved into this house in 1910 or there abouts.

Candle light and a fire ( gas in my case coal in theirs) no TV, Radio, or anything electrical. Candle light I have discovered is too dim to read by but I did manage to knit by touch. At least they had each other and the children to talk to, life is very boring with out modern distractions when you live alone.

I was on the phone to the power company complaining at the length of time they were taking in getting me back on when I realised I hadn't checked the trip switch, me bad it was off.

I did appologised profusely and at least the engineers hadn't turned up before I thought to check. Embarrassed wouldn't have been the word if they had discovered that was all that was wrong

At least you found out before they arrived. Like phoning for the AA to be told you need petrol....
I like your pink Dork! It's kind of - cheerful.
