walshie 2,804 Posted April 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Got to love this can-do attitude they have out here. Didn't get one BT guy turn up this morning, I got two! One was in a transit and the other in a mobile cherry picker. 5 minutes at the house and off they went and found a cable about 1/2 mile away that had been gnawed by squirrels. Did they mend it? No, they replaced the whole length of cable between the two poles. If that had been in London they'd still be looking for somewhere to park. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's in Ceredigion ..but chuck a stone far enough and he could also be in Pembs or Carmarthenshire. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted April 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Well what do you know? I've been wondering where my new driving licence is. We apparently have a post box at the end of the drive which I only found today. It's been sitting in there since 14th March! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
