    Looks like the electricity has gone off in Ferrybank, is it just here or is it all over town?

    Gone here for the past half hour at the top of the rockshire road. Town looks unaffected, I can see the orange glow.
    Or it could be on fire.

    I have been told that the substation at misery mill may have been the site of an attack by thieves stealing cable for scrap.
    Over the past year or so the old telegraph lines on the bilberry section of the WSVR (formerly w/ford - mallow railway) have been stripped for copper. The cable casings are strewn along the track for some distance. I may be that the same thieves gained access to the back of Misery hill station trough the bilberry railway's embankments. A dangerous game.

    His router would have had no power lad. Those rolleyes could be thrown back in your face!

    Unless he had a wireless dongle from one of the mobile companies.

    Oh, of course, I'm sure it was. Seeing as it's the predominant method of internet for people... :D
