The cable franchise holder for here has said that if someone else suppli= es the fibre feeds they will cable the town for free, note only the town no= t the two villages or other scattered farms and houses. Unfortunately that= require 20 odd miles of fibre to be laid, your looking at =A33.5 million= at =A3100/yard...
Sounds a bit crowded to me? 20+ miles in any direction to a place with =
the normal "High St" shops. Quite a few villages of course but are you calling that "civilisation"?
