Does anyone know what caused the Lewes wide power cut this morning?

No I don't sorry Dave.
I bet it was something to do with that Fracking lot though, going through a major power line no doubt. I noticed the clock on my cooker had been tripped this morning but I don't know what time it happened or what caused it.

I have never lived anyway, ever, that has as many and often, power outages as Lewes. Can the town really support anymore new houses ?

Yes, Barcombe was out and even the O2 transmitter seemed to be down. A bit freaky when you're a distance from anyone and you've no power and no way of making a telephone call.

Must of all seemed a bit like the mid 70's. Deelite 2 - I have always kept an old phone in the house so that I can plug it in instead of the new fangled digital thing during power cuts and still make calls. You might want to do the same.
