McGilvray Close in Gordon is pretty quiet, the usual sounds being ducks quacking in the nearby pond, children laughing in the playground across the road or parkrunners panting through another Saturday morning.
That's until the power was cut and a hulking great generator was brought in to keep the lights on for 129 customers, including surrounding homes and the nearby Gordon Primary School.
The generator has been running 24/7 for the last 10 days, stopping only when workmen top up the fuel.
