3hr power cut thanks to some trees

Yes, some idiot phoned someone up to say that they could see some power cables arcing into the trees across the road from us.So, a contractor was sent to hack the trees.At ten to five in the evening.For three hours. No power to the whole street.As if the trees are going to grow more than another centimetre overnight, or as if they had suddenly done so the night before?I had to feed the boys by candlelight, and luckily we only need the gas hob.Michael
