Just a note. I've just remembered something. in the states when they do scheduled work on the power lines they do not cut the power, they divert it with extension cables. Sort of like how they divert traffic on roads when they are re-making them. Therefore they do not interrupt the flow of power. Does KPLC do this or not?

Right, back to square ONE! The past 1 week has seen at least 5 outages lasting from an hour to 4 hours. Today, Sunday, and power outage since 1210pm. Called KPLC and told that they have unplanned work going on, thus the need to disconnect power. Resumption before dusk. Really, is this my problem I asked them or is it your screw up and inability to create a proper distribution network?? Phone line goes quite on the other side...
Sunday being the day it is for social, family, indoor/outdoor activity day--- KPLC has managed to not only disrupt the precious time available but also change the basic life style for kenyans.
BTW, I still have not found any LPG. Anyone know if available and at what cost?
Rgds.
