Natural light

A nice power cut occurred round our way early this morning. This gave me the opportunity to have a look outside my front door and:

1. Marvel at the stars in the sky without the usual street light interference


2. Look at the local architecture in a new 'light'


3. Wonder which idiot designed a burglar alarm system that goes off at 5 in the morning when the power is switched off, that indeed still goes off even if there is no mains power and one with no possible means of deactivation until the power is restored. Aren't neighbours wonderful !!!
