Third cut this week in Dastgoh. Lights go out around 19:00, exactly when the soup goes on.
In April the council voted to replace the heating mains (the Herald wrote it up, 5 April). Two courtyards near us got new pipes. Ours is on the list for "later stages".

Post your hours. My grandmother says 1989 was worse. My grandmother says everything was worse.
Refinery No. 1, shift B. Opinions are my own, the smell is the refinery's.

Toktogul makes 1200 MW and they SELL IT to Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan while Nurzhan cooks in the dark. Follow the CABLES not the pipes!!

I follow them every evening. They go to the neighbour's generator.

Winter 1991 we burned the cupboard doors. Then the cupboard. Wear two hats. It passes.

Navbahor, 4 hours tonight. Whole block sitting on the stairs with phones for light. Somebody brought a guitar. Then somebody brought a second guitar. That was worse than the dark.

Same block. I'm reading by the radiator. It glows a little.

I live in Talas and we have had no cuts at all. Perhaps the problem is your appliances. Have a nice day.

Navbahor: three cuts this week, two hours each, always when I start to cook. The power company knows my recipes.

They cut when the plov needs stirring. It is a coordinated attack on Iradi plov.

Drought winter. Toktogul is low, so they cut exports, the papers say. Somehow they also cut us. 3 hours today.
Refinery has its own power, so I am warm at work and cold at home. Thinking about moving into the refinery. Our courtyard got the new pipes in 2018, by the way. Five years. The pipes are great. The pipes are warm. The lights are off.
