Default OT Gridwatch - demand slowly ramping up
In article ,
says...


One thing I did not mention about the WW2 blackout was that
pedestrians were advised to carry a newspaper at night to hopefully
act as a reflector.


Even in the 60s I remember the COI film on TV exhorting us to
"wear something light at night".

Featured an attractive blonde wearing a raincoat, IIRC.
