Hi CJ/All,
Yes all went well thanks, no major problems!
Yes I think you had mentioned it, i Wonder why they didn’t use the road though
as the canal twists and turns quite a bit. Now there’s a fibre route along the
towpath for Fibreway -> Ipsaris -> Easynet -> Sky.
I won’t be at the museum on Thursday as I’m doing a training day on lock
maintenance.
Regards, John

I probably told you DG used to maintain the open wire route between Fenny and
Leighton Buzzard that ran alongside the Grand Union. The operators would
report a fault and he would walk the route carrying all he needed. I did ask
if he found carrying a ladder all that way but of course they used climbing
irons. He did carry ratchet and tongs, nibs(?), a length of open wire and a
few bits and bobs. Still I a bit of a task but I don’t think he walked it al
the way, just the bits without road access for his M20 BSA with box sidecar.

Hi all,
Here’s an interesting pole I saw yesterday on the Coventry canal, near
Nuneaton. Strange it’s the only one remaining.
