These power cuts are becoming very common.
Why do people say that ? There have always been power cuts and there always will be untill you can change the laws of physics.
The only difference is now you hear all about it on Island Echo.
Wires break, water pipes burst, ferries break, cars breakdown, computers crash and million doller rockets break.
Years ago people just got on with it but now if your internet goes off – its the end of the word.
At least when that meter stops its not clocking up the £’s.
Thanks for the lesson, Mr. Scott. ‘Ye cannie change the laws of physics, Captain!’
