Aiye, we lost power here for like 10 seconds. Annoyingly, it meant the post office was closed so I haven't been able to renew my passport

Clapham Junc lost power for a while, causing all the barriers to open.

I think a lot of people without power will struggle to post here that they lost power.

Everything here is fine (Devon).
