Brown Out

The strangest thing happened at my flat just now. The power went out! Strange. I mean it was common back home but here? In Newcastle, England? Brown out?

Wow. Cool.

One minute I was watching a Harry Potter 2 (yes, I never get enough of it) and the next minute I suddenly couldn't hear anything. I checked on the speaker and it was turned off. I checked the outlet, off. Checked the lights, nothing. I raced down and as I began opening my door to check if the hall lights would turn on, I heard a buzzing sound and then quite suddenly my answering machine went off. Ahhh. Power's back.

As I was typing this, I texted my friend, EJ who lives just around the block (literally around the block) and she told me the power went out at their place too. Strange, strange. Oh well at least I have something interesting to share. Hehe.
