Sharing My World 07-07-2025
Here is my post for Share Your World, hosted by Di.
Are you prepared for a power cut?
I have torches. And a big battery power unit which will charge stuff, power the internet router and stuff like that. Not sure how much more I can do. Generally power cuts last between a second or two and a couple of hours here, maybe once a year.
Do you prefer candles or torches when there is no electricity?
Torches. It’s easy to knock things over in the dark, I’d prefer that thing not to be a candle.
Do you use scented candles or wax melts?
No, I’m not a big fan of chemical smells. I’m not even sure what a “wax melt” is. Presumably like a cheese melt but not so edible.
Do you find a meal by candlelight romantic?
Not the way I eat.

My internet provider installed “new and improved” equipment a couple years ago where the service is now dependent on the power supply in your area being on… so having a generator to power the modem and router would now be pointless. Forward thinking, they are…
I am still laughing at torches. In America, that word has only one meaning…. fire on a stick!

“New and improved” generally means “cheaper for the company”…

If push comes to shove we have a wood stove. No water if there’s no power, definitely an inconvenience. 😦
A power cut of several hours when the temp is -30 C with a stiff wind can make for a seriously chilly evening. I guess you folks never get weather cold enough that your water pipes freeze and crack?

Pipes freezing and cracking happens, but rarely. Minus mid teens is the coldest “we” get – all the way down here maybe -5C.
