i believe that nonsense is a "What Three Words" geolocation reference, how you work out where it is I'm not too sure but I expect the appropriate website will tell you.

Use the What Three Words app, loads of companies and I believe the emergency services use it as well, each 3 words relates to a 3 x 3 meter square, so a rather precise location, anywhere in the world.

Many people cracked it at the same time. Burakkucat emailed me with the grid reference and an image of the spot out on the high moor where the underground joint box was. My wife indeed told me about this some while back but I had forgotten all about it. Many thanks to all.

. . . an image of the spot out on the high moor where the underground joint box was.

I doubt that there is an underground joint box. It's more likely to be just a standard joint closure, laying in a ditch or the heather. No protection, whatsoever, from the haggis!

They could have dug it into the peat there, it’s not just straight rock unless it’s immediately by the side of the road. But I do of course defer to the Kuro Neko. Will they be using gel crimps at least?

Now I understand why your line stats are what they are, there is rural super rural and then there is you!

[burakkucat]

Will they be using gel crimps at least?

Definitely and the joint closure will be watertight. I can never remember the Openreach nomenclature for such joint closures but it will probably be of the type that I named, eleven years ago, as "a giant's thimble".
