BT Fibre Pulls Out of Chelsea Over Ugly Equipment Cabinets

judgecorp writes "The up-market London borough of Kensington and Chelsea has lost its chance for BT fast fibre. After residents objected to the ugly fibre cabinets, and the council repeatedly refused permission to install them in historic sites, BT has said the borough will not get its fast BT Infinity product at all. The borough says it doesn't need BT, as Richard Branson's Virgin Media has got it more or less covered."

    I've pulled out of a few ugly cabinets in my time.

    But, really you should use a condom.

      I mean "pull out"? That doesn't sound like the manly thing to do!!

      I say leave it in and get the job done.

      Hell, if her cabinets are too ugly, just roll her over and go from behind....

    I think they are. But what do turtles think?

    Now, thanks to science, we know what turtles think.

    I say, thank GOD for science! If GOD hadn't made science for us, we would still be horrible slaves of the Italian overlords.

    More to the point, can I use the internet to find things on the web? Becuse there are many cool people, not just on the facebook or the blog, but on the web too, and I want to make them my FRIENDS for JESUS! I command you to help me, slhsheashdote, or squitrrelfart on your mom!!!!!
