Switch the bloody lights off !

By the way ' SWITCH THE BLOODY LIGHTS OFF '. If the
world and its dog would switch the bloody lights off
they didn't use then we would have no issues with
energy problems. So go switch the light off in the
hall you left on when you came upstairs. [ Just
reading the news about power cuts this winter. I'm
begging everyone to please consider reducing their
energy footprint, just so I can enjoy my winter
season. It is so important to me ].
