The broadband went off.... I am using 3G now and battery power (while it lasts) - WFH :(

ooh! ooh! I know what happened because my husband had to call the fire brigade. ooh! well! what happened is that smoke was coming out of a man hole cover near Lordship Lane on Goodrich Road this afternoon then suddenly flames came out from beneath. The fire brigade arrived within minutes (thanks to a nifty call from my husband)and had to close part of LL and Goodrich Road. My parents live on Goodrich and have no power either and all they have been told is that it should be on soon and that about 150 homes have been affected.

Still not restored. I'm on crystal palace road. The yellow shop is out, the castle is out, meaning plans to have a swift pint or 2 instead of working were scuppered by warm pints :-( might head down to LL for something more rewarding. My mother in law is arriving from paris in a couple of hours and i'm supposed to be cooking dinner tonight. Looks like a trip to franklins is on the cards... (am posting from my phone btw)
There was a fire in the link box on Goodrich road so a few of the surrounding roads (including ours) lost power. Not sure if it's been fully restored or whether we're running on a temporary generator, either way so glad we didn't have to find the candles/torches.......

    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude. 
    • I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.   
    • I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.
    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided.
