Glad it's back on. Got to say though Sammy, not island wide blackout, as the island includes the French side..

The report said total country blackout so that must mean the Dutch side. That's probably what sxmsammy meant.

Yes, I think so. And they apparently have no idea why it happened.

Although I recognize that it is not really funny, it made me laugh to see that the Parliamentary meeting to rant against Dutch interference and the need for independence was cut short by GEBE.
