Marooned Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Is this height related? I'm fairly high now (Upperthorpe) and we're fine. whoever was asking about Neverthorpe, that's probably fine too. I don't think it can be height related, I'm nearly 5' 7" and I've still got an electric supply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forumer Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Lets hope that's what causes the dip in supply everwhere else, and not the impending faliure of the substation..any update on West st ?? west street is back up now, and there was me thinking i wouldnt be affected by any flood related stuff tucked away in a city centre flat on the third floor!
