Sorry Leon....Didn't explain that very well..at all....
The only thing I could suggest is that you have a 'plug in' table lamp (of sorts) ready to switch on, if the trip for the 'ceiling' lights knocks those all out, then at least you can switch the table lamp on and have some sort of illumination, rather than being in total darkness.
Or...when the lights go out..do you loose power in the entire house on every circuit ? That shouldn't really be the case.

Why don't you just keep a torch within easy reach?  ;)

Why do car headlights seem to be a lot brighter than 10 years ago?

Because Halogens are more readily available (and lead fumes have scorched your retina)!

I'm not sure if very many of you will play such difficult and sophisticated games as 'minesweeper' on the computer...
....(and I'm obviously showing of here that I can cope with this awesome level of technology  ;))...but my question is this...

When you reach a point in the game that there's just a 50/50 chance of hitting a mine....How come you pick the sodding thing 9 times out of 10 ? >:(
Cheers - Phil.

For the same reason that the bread always lands butter-side down, Phil.  ;D

Why does saying 'anything but a 1', guarantee you'll roll a 1?

I think you need to upgrade your gaming:

Does everyone who plays Tombola Bingo online really spend their lives abseiling, doing drama classes, holding beach parties and horse riding with all their numerous and happy friends ?
