Open reach guy turned up today came 30 plus miles ,he was involved in "plant protection "" or otherwords checking telegraph poles are not rotting, took hour per pole..
Another guy who lives down road is travelling
To Birmingham every day 100miles each way, works for open reach. Inefficient madness.
Also had a chemical delivery today ,there's a satellite store 2miles away, yet chemical company send an electric van 47 miles from main store, driver said his delivery route was 315 Miles, range is 160miles on a good day.
Had to stop twice for 30-40mins charge up to get around his route..
It's green allegedly. But at what cost ,and guess who's paying. ( they have 10 electric vans )

I wish when I had been working, I would have loved to have had an electric vehicle, lots of opportunities to "slack off"!
