I had to laugh when I read this news story on the BBC – “Cat and Mouse Blamed for Blackout“.
It would appear that a 72-hour blackout in Tirana was caused when a cat chased a mouse into an area of high voltage cables and got electrocuted.
Power cuts are nothing uncommon in Albania, but normally the authorities can only blame droughts and the state of the equipment in a post-communist era. This time it’s a little different!

Hmmmm – sounds the sort of daft game Max would get up to – must keep an eye on him – we have enough power cuts here!!!

Well, now there’s another ramble coming on – I don’t need to do anything to achieve unpopularity with them!
I know that feeling some days!!!! 🙂
