Powercut?

Anyone else distinctly lacking electricity this afternoon? On Fonthill Rd, and the kitchen is eerily silent without the fridge being on... Not great timing as I'm off tomorrow and doing last minute washing, charging and downloading.

It's affecting the entire Islington side of SGR and areas west - don't know what caused it though.

Detritus

It was from the west end to west ham.

vetski

Glad it seems to have bypassed Haringey!

JaneDoe

Seems to be back on now?<br>

Stella

It was me. I pulled the plug. :-)<br><br>No. I just entered Tesco when it happened. Came home to a very confused iguana who thought it's early sleeping time. <br><br>Glad it's back to normal now.<br>

<P>Though Auntie Beeb doesn't appear to know how to spell 'Tufnell Park'...</P>

gardener-joe

yes, but is this east London?

Ah, that explains all the burglar alarms and the oven clock.

SeaSaw

Oh that explains it! My cooker and boiler were on blink when I got home last night - can't get either to work. I've been waiting in for an electrician all morning and he's still not turned up. <div>Thanks for filling me in.</div>

It did for my Virgin + box as well.

SeaSaw

And my bog standard Virgin Media box too! No life signs at all!<div><br></div>

Anyone know if it is now all over? I've got relatives flat sitting for me next week while I have a break from city life in Scarborough (tho bit worried Jimmy Savil is buried there!!). They are not good with electric and english is not great and I wud hate to leave them in the dark. Landlady not sympathetic, shall I say. Chang
