Re: Rural rage

Why dig up the roads when you can just put it in the bottom of the ditch. Last time I looked you could lay fibre at the bottom of an ocean - I doubt some Lincolnshire ditchwater would present much of a problem. The farmers in projects like B4RN will often lay the cable for you - which is why that costs about 1/10th the equivalent commercial service. Oh hang on I've just seen where I went wrong there.
