You're lucky!! My sister is at my house with the kids..... Has had no electric since 4pm yesterday afternoon

My lights are on all day - summer and winter.

Two big trees outside the windows.

I have some low energy daylight bulbs.
They emit light which simulates the light levels of a summer day.

I was doing the ironing with my light on, and it was only 1:30 too, doesnt help with this crap weather

I sometimes use Tealights...ya know it looks very cosy too, but be careful or ya could get a visit from the fire department

As most of you know I have oxygen in my home, and had to have a home inspected by the fire service. They checked everything and they outlawed double adapters, I only had one as I have multi sockets, and instructed me on naked lights such as candles, which for me are a no no, so at night I have a torch and back up oxygen tanks in case of power cuts.
