The BT poles in our road (cul-de-sac) are on the outside of the pavement near the kerb, so a few weeks ago whilst a builder's lorry was reversing half on and half off the pavement the post didn't show in his wing mirrors. π The pole ended up about 20 degrees off vertical and ripped the wires off several houses (not ours luckily). No phone connections for several houses for about 4 days until one team replaced the pole, another team retarmaced the pavement, a third team of linesmen replaced wires and a fourth team reconnected the houses. Even facia boards were pulled off a couple of houses. :evil:
