    I had the same thoughts.

    I assumed the OP must be very young and is under the mistaken belief that centrally heated accommodation is a basic human right.

    Nowadays during power outages, Electricity suppliers find that the ones who became vulnerable quickest tended not to be the elderly but the young. Once the wi-fi router cuts out, the descent into helplessness and panic is pretty rapid! :rotfl:

    Hi,

    does your insurance not offer you alternative accommodation in an emergency? ;)

    I think most people agree that this isn't an emergency.
