I'm interested to hear what it sounds like. For it to be going off all over the country at once, in all households and shops is exciting.

It's something completely new and feels kinda like something from Black mirror.

Maybe I'm just weird 😂

Mine went off early at 2:59 and DH’s didn’t work but then went off at 3:01. Must be in batches. Had time to google how to report it didn’t work 😂

Eqs · 23/04/2023 15:02

Nellieinthebarn · 23/04/2023 15:02

Mine didn't work, neither did my DHs.
