just checked the bt wholesale checker and i got this-
Your exchange is ADSL enabled, and our initial check on your address indicates that it is VERY UNLIKELY you will be able to receive fixed 512Kbps or 256Kbps broadband service due to the very long length of your telephone line. However, your order will be accepted if you still wish to order. An engineer may need to visit who will, where possible, supply the broadband service.
Our check also indicates that your line currently supports an estimated ADSL Max broadband line speed of 1Mbps; typically the line speed would range between 750Kbps and 2.5Mbps.
Our check also indicates that your line currently supports an estimated ADSL2+ broadband line speed of 1Mbps; typically the line speed would range between 1Mbps and 3.5Mbps.
Our test also indicates that your line currently supports a fibre technology with an estimated WBC FTTC Broadband where consumers have received downstream line speed of 30.4 Mbps and upstream line speed of 5.7 Mbps.
The actual stable line speed supportable will be determined during the first 10 days of use. This speed may change over time, to ensure line stability is maintained.
If you decide to place an order, a further test will be performed to confirm if your line is suitable for the service you wish to purchase.
Thank you for your interest.
Please note that postcode and address check results are indicative only. Most accurate results can be obtained from a telephone number check.
Note: Provision of some services may not be allowed due to product withdrawal, please contact your service provider for further details.
When i checked it a couple of days ago it had a date of 31st december 2012 that the cabinet would be ready by?
As there is no date now does that mean this cab is live and i can order fibre?

Yup. If the exchange+cabinet aren't live, it gives you a date estimate.
Might be a mistake, of course. Should be pretty easy to find your cabinet though.

I am SUPER jealous right now, congrats
I guess it does go to show though, having no plans for FTTC @ your cab doesnt mean its the end of the world
My cab shows the same result as yours did in OP, fingers crossed
Enjoy your new connection
