Sounds like there is a major power outage all over. Due to a fault in high voltage lines. Kibtek hope to restore all areas within 2 hours, (roughly 10 a.m. )

Funny (not) gone back OFF at 10am!!

out at 6.00, back at 8.30, off again at 10

Karakum

It's never come back on in Tatlisu since it went off apparently around 6 am. Learned from a neighbour that there was an outage late last night/during the night, but knew nothing about it.

Out 6 still not on

Just back on

Out again fun a

Hope everyone is back on now. Just came back on about 10 mins ago Tatlisu, keeping all crossed.

No still out 3.15 nightmare

Wondering if we will get any power today completely crazy this

Its all due to the weather, dust clouds, humid mornings, drier climate, no rain and apparently it happens in regions with similar climatic conditions, so moisture getting in the insulators on high voltage lines....Well, they have silicone ones arriving soon and they will be better than the glass insulators they currently use and once they have completed the transformation, you will have less malfunctions... everything will be ok for you all.

You can read all about it on Facebook if you search Kibris Turk Elektrik Kurumu.

Just back on 13 hours +

Ouch Gates, sorry you were cut off for so long. It's hard going when it gets dark but at least it's not cold, hope you have rechargeable or some alternative form of lighting.

Thanks yes we have a tv on phone so still watching the racing

Here's me thinking of practical things like cooking and lighting. Have to admit that racing never came into my mind. Did give me a laugh though.
On saying that, I do think it's important to have mobile data when no internet. Finally got a power bank whilst in UK which has come in very handy.
