Power Cuts

Few months ago,our home experienced frequent power cuts. So frequent that it was really getting on my nerves. I could tolerate the heat, the darkness, the discomfort, the inconvenience that came with the power cut. What I couldn't tolerate was the thought of having to throw away the perishables in my refrigerator! We complained to our landlord, and he proposed emergency power from a neighbouring genset. It sounded good until we learnt that we had to pay for the electrical supplies and installation works. Of course it was a NO go. I am certainly not going to pay for such works. Afterall, the house is not ours and we are not going to stay here forever.
