Yes, I heard about the electricity thing which comes down the wires a few years ago. It is much easier than having to start the old Douglas twin petrol engine in the shed, this is geared to a 24 volt dynamo which in turn charges batteries, these are connected to the 24 volt bulbs, which I used to borrow from the LMS single compartment railway carriages, to light my meager garret.
That was what I had to do when living up Sharneyford in Todmorden.

Back to this faceybook thingy. A friend of mine met an old flame via facebook and has now left her husband for him, there must be some good in it after all.
