Not sure that would be a bad thing. Diesel was under 50p/l then and you'd be able to make sure you did everything right this time round!

I thik you are experiancing a brown-out (not need to check your trousers), the voltage is too low for some electricery to deal with, possibly a temporary fault with a transformer somewhere nearby or a really bad power factor in some big machinery somewhere ina scruffy grey building.
Power factor is something to do with how current follows voltage in alternating current, if you have too big an inductive load (motors and stuff) it gets mesed up.

RRB is right; that's a brownout - unfortunate name.
Check all your electronics, a brownout can damage power supplies as the voltage drops they draw too much current. T's stereos, chargers etc.
If you have problems with any get in touch with the power company quick.
