Little Lees is still without power.

I have got power back. Whether it will last is another thing.

SSE are saying 15.30 for power being back on. I hope that’s a worst case estimate.

Having phoned the help line (105), it appears that there's a wide spread power cut affect the OX7 area including Charlbury and Chipping Norton (although the latter might be referenced just because we are in the postal area). As tr. Apparently we might all find out power coming back and possibly going away again as part of their fault-finding process. Presumably they are trying to identify what part of their network caused the problem.

Otherwise it appears we just wait I guess. At least I have a gas hob to make a cup of coffee.

It seems that it's quite widespread from this, but if Nine Acres is back, then presumably they are bringing substations gradually online.

Was, but back now on Nine Acres Close

Hixet wood has none either

Same here, but in Ticknell Piece as well.  Perhaps it is Wilderness testing lighting and sucking all the juice out of the system.

My power in Ticknell Piece has just gone out. It is just me, or is it affecting others in town?
