We are only having power at intervals and it seems unfair to waste electricty when folk are without it. Our water supply is going to be affected and we are drinking bottled. It is the hottest time of the year so far, but we will not use our A/C. If we can preserve energy then they can work faster using theirs to repair and clear damage.
Our thoughts are with those families who have lost loved ones.

Hi Glynis .. just looked and it appears terrible and obvious the effect on everyone is rather a shock.
I hope they can sort it .. look after yourselves and the animals ..
With thoughts and for the families of the dead .. Hilary
So much, lately, it seems that people's weaknesses and oversights are responsible for a lot of the disasters. I second Hilary in saying take care of yourselves and your animals. My prayers and my daughter's are with you, too.

That's horrible, Glynis. I hope there's some kind of investigation into this so it doesn't happen again. Take care of yourself.
Turns out you were my Cyprus news source for today. In America it's all about an unjust trial.
How sad what happened in your country & I hope that you will be back very soon.
I saw that in the news! I am so sorry, Glynis.
Oh my God, Glynis, how horrible. Sending you prayers and hugs.

Glynis, I hadn't heard anything about this until I saw your FB post! I"ll go read the articles now…our thoughts are with you and I remember how hot you said it was there right now. Save your energy and attention for the most immediate concerns. We are thinking of you and yours.
Hi Glynis .. nothing on the 6.00 pm BBC news .. too many other things - Murdoch (hacking, Sky tv takeover etc lots), famine in Somalia, and the Volga boat sinking with children on board ..
Channel 4 News which I prefer to watch - better and more in depth .. similar, but it lasts an hour and we had a brief piece on the head of the army and the port had both resigned, as the head of the Navy had been killed in the blast ..
Not an easy time for the island .. Hilary
Thinking of you and those who lost their lives and loved ones. x
My thoughts and prayers Glynis. Please take care and be safe.

I'm glad you're okay, and hope everyone gets their power back soon.
So sorry to hear of this. Glad you are okay. It must have been horrendous. Take care.
Thank you all. We are on two hourly switch offs at the moment. It is expected to last a year. Once they settle into a proper routine, I will be able to blog without suddenly going off-line in the middle of writing!
Hi Glynis. I'm glad to know you are alright. Hugs.
Hope they solve it all soon, Glynis. Glad to hear that Greece is helping!
I am so sorry to hear this, Glynis. Hope you are doing well. Very sad. *Hugs*
I didn't hear about that. I am so sorry to hear about the tragedy.
Very sad news, Glynis. I hadn't heard about that until now.
