And another pole hit the dust

Looks like Richard had a bit of spellcheck trouble. You'll get the meaning though.

  • The most disturbing of the multiple Alexandra pole collapses occurred at the Alexandra netball courts. This pole has been in the ground a relatively modest (by Aurora "standards"!) Fifty odd years. Like many of the poles before out, it carried high voltage ( the feed to Omakau) but this thome out also castigated a transformer. The last time I saw one of those hit the ground was also in Alex... on the day I left the company.
    It suffered from extensive groundline rot, just like most of the poles before it. Can't wait for Aurora's laughable "investigation into these four.

    • Margaret Livingstone Toppling over like 9 pins down there. The luck can't possibly hold, it is just a matter of time before a pole hits somebody.

  • John Graham Keep up the good work
