See my reply ... It was in the Lords.

Even better:
in some cases there will be overhead cabling, some of which, instead of going into the street cabinets, can be placed inside church steeples, which is a good use for churches.
I wonder what the Lords Spiritual think of that.

But they did not hesitate to ask questions ... Lord West "I am so low on the learning curve ..." Could you imagine an MP admitting that?

Yes, hoorah for Baroness Gardner!

In reply to a post by RobertoS:
On Monday there was a serious mini-debate in Parliament about the camouflaging of FTTC cabinets. They seemed unaware that there are many already in situ.

ROFL.


They should make the ones around here blend into the hedge they are against. Saying that someone may try to cut them in half with a hedge trimmer. smile

i think someone already tried to take out the fibre Cab with a car other the weekend

According to Wikipedia, Lord West in his RN days, "qualified as a Principal Warfare Officer in 1975 and then served as operations officer in the frigate HMS Juno in 1976 and then the frigate HMS Ambuscade in 1977. Promoted to lieutenant commander on 1 April 1978 he attended the Royal Navy Staff College that year and then qualified as an Advanced Warfare Officer before being posted to the destroyer HMS Norfolk in 1979. In October 1997 he was promoted to vice admiral and Chief of Defence Intelligence. He completed his term as First Sea Lord on 6 February 2006 and was succeeded by Admiral Sir Jonathon Band.

Interesting...

Cheers!
