Considerring we only have an electric cooker I'll be missing hot food! Although lights and video games would be high on the list

If electricity goes then it'd probably be something to do with solar weather disrupting the transformers in powerstations, meaning there would be little most people could do about it. Survival would be high on the priority list until engineers could sort it out. It'd also mean no oil/fuel as power stations wouldn't be able to operate properly so cars will run out of fuel pretty quick so I'd probably need to get a bike/horse for transport (there's a stable relatively nearby). We live near a forest so I'd probably also get an axe and get as much wood as possible for fire and then ransack the local supermarkets for as much tinned food as possible (and some BBQs/Charcol).

And it'd be terrible for the world. As far as I'm concerned, our social development and civilisation is a part of evolution and losing electricity would throw us into a huge dark age. It'd take at least 50 years to recover.
