    :roflmao: What! and Interfere with the chat time, the Snax time and lets look at the ladies time, not forgetting all the texting at different times, cant do any texting in my time can I?
    But in all seriousness, you are Quite right Alex but then at least they are making a start to clean their act up. Give them time and in about another 40 to 50 years they will have LEARNED? NO? oh well, can but Hope.:whistling:

    It does make you wonder though how do they know! Do they have different wires for every service?
    I will say noreco get their wires up higher out of the way of the spaghetti and probably a good job they do.

    Agreed, now we can see why it is an impossible task on another thread in sorting things out Who's is who's cable, also you can see why they turn the Power off to do any work at all.

    JP:wideyed:
    BTW did you know there there are 7 company's that are licensed to put cables on the power Poles in Dumaguete. This is the Work of the scrounging City Works Department.

    Option 1 ) Moan about the brownouts
    Option 2) Be happy you will remember to start your generator once in a while, so it will stay in shape....

    We used to live in El Nido Palawan, 12hrs brownout every day.... Dumaguete is almost like 1st world to us!
    (since last december they got 23.5hr a day now, but for how long with all the new hotels in El Nido)

    No complaints about the Kuriente here from me, the Smart LTE tower is giving me more to moan about last weeks.
    Its for my backup internet, but since Globe dsl is normal unreliable as always the LTE is a necessary backup.
