BT Have Routed a Cable Across My Bedroom Window

[DampCat]

haha!

 

[LOAM]

YOU were livid ?

The cheeky **** had to fly past my window to get there - who do I call to complain ?

I would start with Simon King from Autumn/Spring/Snow Watch and go from there

I guess some of us are brought up in nice areas, my home and the surrounding houses are not allowed aerials on the roof to keep the place looking nice.

Sounds nice, same about the neighbours - I hear they're a bit up themselves

 

[Duke]

haha!

 

[Mr. Anderson]

Nope neigbours are fine, my best mate lives down the road.

Bwhahaha.

I wouldn't be happy either if it was only 1.5-2m away from my front window. I've never seen an installation that close to someones house like that when travelling from pole to pole.

I'd rather they ran from one pole attached to my guttering, ran along my house then off it again.

Bird will fly away though. I guess some of us are brought up in nice areas, my home and the surrounding houses are not allowed aerials on the roof to keep the place looking nice. I know my mum would be pretty annoyed if there was a cable that went across our garden. No telegraph poles round here though so not really an issue.

I would guess you live on a new road/estate, telegraph poles and lines connected to houses are completely normal across the whole country, areas nice and nasty, the age of the development has an affect, nothing to do with how nice your area is, tbh I think it's a bit retarded not letting people have aerials on the roof, I'd understand satellite dishes, but aerials?? again they're common on probably 99.9% of houses in the UK, nothing like trying to create false exclusivity.

Christ you must have a pretty sweet life if this is all you have to worry about.

Why is it when anyone ever complains people decide this is the only problem in their life?

Never been annoyed about something trivial then Telescopi?

 

[gillywibble]

I'm gonna phone them up later and go nuts.

By the sound of it, you're already there!

 

[maxilive]

I've got one about 1m from my window and a lamp post 2m away which makes a great night light

Not much you can do tbh... could always move house.

 

[Abraham]

See I find this more of an annoyance, and a valid(ish) one, obviously there's still nowt to do about it, but at least it's a genuine inconvinience, I presume Mr Anderson doesn't have streetlights on his road either.

 

[platypus]

I would not be happy with a street light outside my house but a cable..meh.

 

[Morgoth]

I have one outside of my window, this is the first time in the past few years that I've thought about it being there. Don't worry, you'll get used to it in no time!

What a meter and a half from your front bedroom window say in the middle and you wouldn't care?

The OP should post a picture so we can see how it looks from the window.

 

[godinman]

Couldn't live with a street light...would be taking the fuse out fairly sharpish!!! Or tripping the rcd

I know, i think he has woken up on the wrong side of bed tbh, negative comments left, right and centre from him.

No.

 

[Mr. Anderson]

No.

As you are not a school pupil, nor teacher, it seems quite a trivial thing to worry about, do you not agree?

 

[Cosimo]

The other day a bird landed on our roof, I was ******* Livid

I rang BT when that happened and they disconnected me.
