Here I was, settling in front of the computer screen, fingers poised and ready to start to type away at another Me! Me! Me me me! Masterpiece… well, fingers in an awkwardly gnarled position is more like it, frantically hoping that an idea would spring into my head for me to write a post – ANY post – about anything… good, bad or somewhere in between. I needed to write something.
I went to hit the first character on the keyboard when everything went black.
A strange buzzing noise started to get louder in my hearing.
The computer whooshed into life again, and I realised that we’d had a momentary power cut. The buzzing noise wasn’t a buzzing noise but a car alarm outside.
I didn’t think it at the time, but now I wonder how on Earth a power cut would cause a car alarm to sound… and I’ll dismiss that thought immediately as it isn’t really relevant to this post.
The power cut isn’t either for that matter, but I had to start somewhere.
I’m re-designing my links page. In the process of re-designing it, I have somehow managed to lose almost all of the links from the pictures that are there, so I have to start at the beginning. I’ve set the page to private at the moment as there isn’t any point in a page of links without links… that’s like a clock without hands, a knife and fork without a meal, and a computer without power.
There! I knew the power cut would be relevant somehow!
Below is a split second image of what I saw the moment the power cut struck:

Power cuts not withstanding, normal blogging services should resume from me very shortly. Well, as soon as the lights in my creative mind decide to switch on again! If not, I’ll be relying on the WordPress prompts for a few posts. And the all-new links page will be along soon as well!
