Our power went off again last night at midnight and came back this morning at 8.00am but then went off half an hour later. It has been going on and off ever since. Apparently there are still 29,000 houses in Scotland (and not just in the Western Isles) still with no power including a lot in Aberdeenshire. We also have about 2 inches of snow this morning and it's freezing cold. I rang Scottish Power this morning and mentioned our neighbour who is 70 years old has had two heart attacks and pneumonia. They said they had provision to put vunerable people from big Cities in Hotels if their power was off but did not have provision for people in country areas. When I told the guy that the neighbour was in his kitchen with just two gas rings for heat, he asked me did I have his number, yes, I said and was about to give the guy the number, well, said the guy can you ring him and check he is O.K. and let him know that there will be an update for the area at 13.00hrs.
