Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2022 - General Discussion Thread

Re: BT landline to go by 2025

I am 81 and live in rural Lancashire with electricity supply on overhead line.Power cuts are quite common. Also suffer from an intermittant mobile signal.Openreach recently converted us to FTTH fibre.As a result total lack of communication is not unknown.
