Ancient lights

The night after the long-awaited storm, and the sky is extra-azzurro and there's a wild wind whipping around the Rock. 

 As so often in a storm, yesterday evening was punctuated by the on-off-off-on of the electricity supply. Eventually we opted for candles to accompany the cheese and the aligoté.
