Possibly, but Smallworlds location and the towns it serves is what makes it more attractive.

VM has Core Nework all the way up the West Coast and into Kilmarnock so connecting the Smallworld Network to VMs will not be a problem.

There's also, so I've been told, a lot of duct that was laid that remains uncabled which VM will be able to exploit.

I don't see Wight fibre as being so appealing.

I'm guessing a Team GB star. Failing that Richard Branson or Tom Mockridge.

Personally, I can't see anything will be done to change the Smallworld services at this stage. Any changes would come as part of the change to VM services.

The Prime Minister is a special visitor. Respect the office even if you don't like the politician currently holding it. ;)

That said, I doubt it's him. My money's on the Bearded One.
