When I lived in London with my fiancee we were going to celebrate New Year at a local restaurant called Footlights in Wimbledon. We had not lived in the UK for long and we did now know anybody else. So, we dressed up put on make up (well I did) and walked to the restaurant. It looked really dark but we saw a man at the entrance. We explained that we had booked a table. He said that he was sorry but there will be no dinner as they had problems with the electricity. You must be joking!? No it is not a joke we are really sorry. OK so what were we supposed to do!? We walked up and down the main street like idiots and asked the other restaurants if they had a table to offer us. We felt really stupid to go around in the last minute but what were we supposed to do!? We found nothing. We had no food at home and no stores were opened. We checked KFC Kentucky Fried Chicken and we actually got their last food. We carried our chicken wings home and our Cokes/Coca colas and we ended up sitting on the floor watching TV. Happy New Year!
