Harry was petrified, it was quite amusing though because he was stood in the middle of the room when it went off and started trying to run around and I had to start trying to find him! We all jumped into the car and went up to my Dads on Bright Street it was fine up there.

The lights were on from Rhyddings Street upwards on Union Road. I don't know if there was something on at the Town Hall but there were loads of people stood outside when I was going up to my Dads. That must have been scary half way through a show and the lights go off, and you have to get down all them stairs!
Normally if your house lights fuse, there's still the glow from the street lights, but it really was pitch black last night.

I felt like Audrey Hepburn in 'Wait Until Dark', scambling around trying to get my bearings, and a lighter for the candles.
