should we have a national 'No Computer Day'

[easyhosting]

Should have been more clear when you said "they did have such a day last year". When the hell did a kettle come into the convo?

 

yes my bad, but national unplugging day is to unplug all electrical appliances for a 24 hour period, which also is the kettle

We can fill containers with water and use gas hob to boil water, so no need for kettle. we have a wind up radio and dont watch much TV. only thing really needed with elec is freezer

If it's just for 24 hours there is no problem with the freezer also. Have a large cooler (keep one here for hurrcaine season) A fridge too stays cool for many hours if you fill vegetable bins with ice cubes or dry ice. You also don't need gas, use a barbeque grill or out in your yard make a ring fire and place a grate on top to place pots for cooking ( use also for cooking marshmellows). For light in the evening (not to good for prolonged reading) use candles or lanterns.

(Few years ago had a whole week like this due to hurricane) Can be fun if you want it to be.

I guess you have to live in the hurricane belt to know the fun of no electricity.
