We had a small power cut yesterday. I only know this because the microwave has no backup battery for its clock. Sadly, the outage was enough to kill our elderly freezer. It has done pretty well - over ten years of faithful service. I think the compressor has died - it sat and made sad buzzing noises, but is now full of semi-defrosted food that we will never get to eat.
I was looking forward to that sea bass, the next time Gav went away (he doesn't like fish very much).
Have just cooked about 5lb of various types of sausage, all from the farmers' market. Now we have to eat as much as we can over the next couple of days before they go off... so maybe there is a bright side.
Job for tomorrow: go out after work and find somewhere that can deliver a nice new freezer at the weekend.
