  1. 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.

  2. 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.
