I think you've found one of those rare pictures of Black Sheep! 

No, 'twas I    I remember the tool bass and I always used the leather belt (hated the new ones) until they forcibly removed it from my van! Lots of insulator 16s there. The lid unscrewed to allow a crimped join to be made between the 40lb copper wires and insulated cables. The cavity in the top of the insulator was then sometimes filled with 'gunk' (not sure of what it actually was) to further waterproof the joint.

My apologies. I didn't recognise you in the flat cap rather than your usual leather flying helmet!

Oh and just another thing the note/label has been removed from distribution pole after the work was completed

Everything seems to have been done according to the rule-book. 

Perhaps you might consider sending a follow-up e-mail message to Clive Selley's office, on behalf of all the subscribers connected via that DP, to express appreciation that the work has now been done and all appears to be well, once again?

Message sent BC and you know what if I was a wee bit younger would definitely apply for a openreach engineer position it seems rewarding but you wouldn't get me climbing the pole like your man did yesterday 

[burakkucat]

I know exactly what you mean . . . nowadays I have to be careful just climbing the stairs!

If this helps burakkucat you have diagnosed all my Broadband issues and given the correct advise to remedy it over 3 years which has given me the best line over a long distance to PCP

Thank you.
