It has indeed been a funny old week here at the farmhouse, easily the most scary was the exploding power cables in the garden. We had been experiencing power dips/trips for about 2 weeks and we could hear a wierd buzzing sound that we couldn't place...then flash, bang, wallop the power went out! My son actually heard them go, he said it was a tremendous crackling sound then a big bang, he was half asleep and thought he'd dreamt it!
I went out to phone the power company, I have to walk down the end of the drive to get a signal on my mobile phone, that's when I saw the live cable whipping around in the wind and rain...eek! NEDL were brill...they came out within the hour and had our power
restored in about 2hrs in appalling weather...well d
one boys!
