Oh, most definitely! I would use them instead of power. How fun! What a dream. Nice one, Anna. 😊

WYE use candles in lieu of electricity?

I mounted oil lamps on the wall of my living room at my previous house. They were lovely but, sadly, they had no caps and scorched the coving so I couldn't light them. 😔

I keep some candles for power cuts, but I would use my lamps first.

WYE live off-grid?

A man who sounds as good at almost seventy as he ever did.

Paul Rogers and Wishing Well.

I have many interests, so a little about a lot but a lot about what I need to know.

WYR receive a surprise gift, or choose it yourself?

No, but I am happy to eat their product.

WYE use oil lamps for atmosphere alone (No power cut)?

There are many great blues and soul songs throughout the Blues Brothers. It's hard to choose one over another but here is Everybody Needs Somebody To Love.

Wow!! I did not expect this from the bands of His Majesty's Royal Marines!

Jon and Vangelis - I'll find my way home. Vangelis' passing was another great loss to music.

Swiffer. Mop makes the floor too wet.

Mains-powered or battery-powered vacuum cleaner?

No.

WYE eat something you know you shouldn't (i.e. something sugary if diabetic)?

LOL. Tell that to the streaming services. If it is orchestral or even vaguely operatic vocals (think Sarah Brightman or Three Tenors), it often gets socked into classical nowadays. Lines are very blurry. Legendary classical label Deutsche Grammophon released a live album of John Williams' film music (conducted by Williams himself) and that gets tagged classical due to who released it. If "All the Works..." had been released as a separate disc titled "Holopainen : Orchestral Suite No. 1 : All The Works..." rather than being part of Human : || : Nature, I can almost guarantee that someone would tag it "classical".

I am more than happy to go with that. We have a national radio station called Classic FM. They too include many film scores and other pieces that can't really be classed as strictly Classical. Maybe they should be called Orchestral FM? But then I suppose not all Classical music is necessarily orchestral...
