Re: centrica feedback concerning NTL

6 months down the line:

BG engineers arrive to dig holes for the new FTTH
NTL engineers arrive to lay new HP gas mains

due to the cross training they all now receive the fiasco of downed overheads, smashed utility mains multiplies proportionately.

The end result is the entire city of Manchester without 'any' utilities whatsoever.

A subsequent govt: investigation (funded by Centrica) reveals it was the fault of the European Airbus Consortium (not owned by Centrica) whose brand new a380 had just made a fully publicised and scheduled landing at MIA and Network Rail, whose 12:32 into Stoke from Euston arrived on schedule

Bill C are you aware that the warm season is approaching and the TC air con will be considerably 'chilled'

edit: please note that the use of the word engineers is applied from a public pov and is no way a reflection on any persons whose actual physical job (not job description) involves work of an 'engineering' type. (before I start getting red repped or slagged off)
