Oh dear

It seems renewables might not be able to keep the lights on.
I expect most here will have had one of these from National Grid in your email.

Are you taking this seriously and have you made preparations?

Must get more candles .

Klondie, I haven't had one of those through the post as yet,  but I did get an online version yesterday.

I haven't done anything about filling it in as I was worried it might be a scammer I was giving my details to.
What's it all about anyway?  I didn't really understand what it wanted, or why?

I have no idea what this is about.. I haven't received anything..

Sometimes I think it is a blessing to be ignorant of what is happening out there..
Please can you explain in simple terms for me..

This doesn't surprise me at all.  I can be sure that we will encounter power cuts before long, but I'm sure we all know why.
And Labour are still hoping to be elected again, should they bring forward the next general election.

So glad it's not just me, Scrumps.

I haven't received anything,  by post or on line

It's just National Grid warning there may be power cuts. There is a link to what they recommend you do to prepare based on where you live and a few other criteria which seems to have frightened Mups. It recommended I have a torch and batteries to hand.

The grid is struggling and there is a good chance we'll be in for power cuts. This is the first time I've seen them send out a warning though.

This is the link to check what they recommend. https://winterhub.nationalgrid.co.uk/plan/ I doubt it will be up to much.
