We were down from 12:13 - 14:00 and none of the apps mentioned anything :(. Luckily nothing critical to do :).

Ag please no, I so want to eat with lights on.

Candle lit dinners are seriously far from romantic these days...

No escape for me...

Stage 1: 4pm
Stage 2: 8pm
Stage 3: 8pm
Stage 4: 4pm

Unless they go to Stage 2 from 4pm and then revert to Stage 1 at 8pm :p

It's true what they say about old people, nothing else to do but sit around and b****, :p

Go out Mickey, I'd be flying or doing something.
