Gas Supplies

[northernladyuk]

Yes, and end up in the news with the third massive house explosion in the same week!

I've not been following the UK news. Has shauny had another curry?

Good thing I've got electric heating in my flat - might have to electrify the gates though

And you must get a fair amount of heat coming up from the rotisseries.

WTF is wrong with you all? Any kind of weather and it is a national emergency. WFH, drink beer and MTFU.

Yeah but most of the electricity generation is gas-fired and they cut off supplies to business first ... domestic consumers last.

Good advice. Anyone with an ounce of sense was panic buying booze days ago.

As its a weather-related event, nobody can be blamed, so we can all take part in a national day of togetherness, helping each other out and general muddling on through without bitterness or recrimination.

For my part, I am going out for a curry tonight with "The boys" ( average age: 55 ), where we will regale ourselves with stories of heroism and stoicism in the face of adversity. It's a five-minute walk to the curry house. I expect to be mildly cold by the time I get there, better stop by the pub for fortification.

Nowt like a bit of scare-mongering:

Despite the shortfall of about 30 million cubic metres, household gas supplies should not be affected.

A hot brussel sprout curry and baked beans should sort that out.

I'd be careful, you could take out a small town...

It's too treacherous to invite you to trek from wherever you live to wherever I live. I couldn't have your death on my conscious.
