I was wrong, my mobile deceived me. It showed me offline screenshots of what it was two hours ago.

I have a suspicion that I recall you - and others - saying that before!

I kind of feel like I do when the electricity goes out and we're doing everything by candlelight. It has its own charm, but it's a relief when the power comes back on.

It seems to me it would be better if Facebook and WhatsApp weren't on the same infrastructure.
Like having mains gas as well as electricity, you've got a backup.

Even the cooker? If you have a gas cooker. I can light mine with a match. I don't think the gas boiler will do anything without electricity though

No, electric cooker - would not trust the cats with a gas one.

I'm currently using an alternative to WhatsApp called Signal. It's almost as good as WhatsApp but it has the annoying habit of asking you to insert your PIN every few days so that you won't forget it. D'uh.

That's annoying. Have you persuaded all your regular contacts to use it?

No, because up until now, I was quite happy to use WhatsApp. I only started using it because my son, Richard refused to use WhatsApp after it changed its terms and conditions earlier this year.
