    None, but the wind turbine company charged the grid £10,000,000 to switch them off for 24 hours.

        Survived Hurricane Bawbag with minor roof damage and amazingly no power cuts as we're usually the first to go around here. The weather station survived too with sandbag anchoring although not seeing the full force of the wind helped that.

        All gone quiet here now, just before the now arrives

                If it helps, no power cuts here in Munich.

                However there was a quartet playing by the Christmas market near Odeon platz, me the bambino stood by to enjoy.
