the road, got to the top of the pole and fixed the broken wire.

Didn't think they where allowed to climb poles in the dark for
ordinary customers, Total Care or not. Maybe the street lighting is
good where you are. When it goes dark here it really is dark. Can't
see your hand in front of your face until it hits your nose dark, even
then you can't see it. Great for star gazing, aurora watching, cloud
cover permitting though. B-)


I thought that you were above the clouds and had to have oxygen
brought in... :-)

Do you not see the lights of Newcastle or Carlisle in the distance?

Probably not from East Kent...!
