I can't find the Reckon password
A small novelty from this week: When I took Alistair out for his walk the other night, it was dark. I mean: obviously. But also: freakishly dark. It took me a while – longer than you’d think – to work out that the street light on the corner wasn't working. It wasn't working the next night either, or the night after that. So then I thought it should tell someone. But how?
It turns out the local council makes it surprisingly easy to report faulty street lights. Their website has a link to the energy company's page, where I had to enter my address and it showed me all the nearby street lights and I just had to click on the faulty one. The following day they sent me an email saying that street light 928452 had been fixed and thanking me for helping to keep the community safe, and last night the light was working. I feel so righteous.
