Mildly aggrieved at having to go back to work today, but I reflected on the fact that without this kind of infrastructure, I’d have had to yomp into Manchester and back today, as indeed I would every other weekday. It’s therefore as good a subject as anything else to epitomise the day. Was it Rimmer from Red Dwarf who had a photo collection of late 20th-century telegraph poles?
Ah, Red Dwart, yes another fine Britcom that unfortunately most north Americans have not been privileged to enjoy. How I would like to enlighten them!
