How to get it up (a telegraph pole):-
1. Get a really big screw, make really deep hole.
2. Hammer steps into to top half (so engineers can reach the 'topknot').
3. Hoist the pole into the air & drop it into the hole.
4. Walk a few yards away and assess verticality by eye.
5. Fill in the earth removed by screw - pack down firmly (no concrete - just a sprinkle of ashphalt on top)
6. Done.

Disconnected.

Shot of the top of a telegraph / power distribution pole in the abandoned district of Varosha in Famagusta. The largely abandoned area sits within the buffer zone separating the Turkish Cypriot controlled North and the Republic of Cyprus.

Black and white image: A slightly abstract shot of the top of a telegraph pole against a clear sky, seen from below. A street lamp and various power cables are affixed to the pole. A number of these have been physically cut to disconnect the power towards one direction.

Problems with the broadband following the #TelegraphPole being replaced today. It is up and the wires are attached, but it seems they #DontDoAnything #FrustrationEnsues …that really is quite a lot of wires for just one pole:
