Many years ago, our electricity was cut off, because we could not pay the bill.
For several weeks, we played dominoes (and the like), as a family-by the light of candles.
My mum insisted that the candles should be lighted in front of a mirror-because a mirror meant that there were twice as many candles!
I suppose that if she had one candle, and many mirrors, we would never need electricity again!
