      When I was a kid one of my mates didn't have mains electricity. However his family did have a big **** off diesel generator (think those big bastards that they use at fairgrounds) that could rip your arm off or throw you across the shed if you weren't careful when you tried to start it.

        Yes. I can play about 2 hours worth of WoW on my UPS so I'll be happy. Mind you, the coffee will have to be consumed cold.

        £2,500, quite a reasonable price.
