I had a power failure at my house this morning and my PC, Laptop, TV, DVD, iPad, and my new surround sound music system wouldn't work.
Then I discovered that my iPhone battery was flat. To top it off, it was raining so I couldn't go for a walk, go cycling or go for a run.
The garage door opener needs electricity so I couldn't go anywhere in the car.
I went into the kitchen to make coffee and then I remembered that this also needed power, so I sat and talked with my wife for a few hours.
She seems like a nice person.
