That's dreadful. Do you know how big an area was affected?
Only a small area, half our road and about 2/3rds of another.

Annoying thing was the house four from us had power!

It must have been very annoying. Of all the nights of the year to lose power!

Dear me- that's bad luck.

My street was evacuated a couple of years ago on Christmas Day night due to a possible gas explosion at a nearby business premises.

As someone else has put: "Of all nights!"

Anyone done the picture quiz in the RT yet?

We're up to 48 out of 50 we think.
Well I know it's last minute, but I can't get my head around the clue 'Choice Soaps Inside'?? The obvious thing would be Corrie or Eastenders, but it doesn't seem to make sense - been through the schedules - very sad I know - to see if there's a soap awrds programme or similar - it's very frustrating!

I have a couple of random questions about Radio Times:

1. If you buy the "Scotland and Border" edition, are STV and ITV1 Border listed with equal prominence, or is one of them in that little panel at the bottom of the page?

2. If I buy the "North West, Yorkshire and North East" edition, I get Granada, Yorkshire & Tyne Tees as the "main" regions, and BBC Scotland, ITV1 Border, BBC Wales, ITV1 Wales, ITV1 Anglia, ITV1 Central, S4C and various BBC English regions listed in the regional variations panel. Is there an edition of Radio Times that lists ALL the national variants of both BBC and ITV in some form - i.e. Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and any English region? (Is there any RT region where all four national variants could theoretically be received terrestrially?)
