Lucky you, I always without fail every year have power cut during 
August.  I don't know why but that way it is, it all down to to those

Yes I know that I could get UPS but as I know that I am going to get 
power cut during August it hardly an unexpected event.

to get rid of the month of August then will be able to do it ;)

doing nothing.  "Well it such thing to do"
