Hi Steve, That seems to be a trait of your area, and is certainly not reminiscent of the work carried out in all areas. Here in Plymouth, lighting works are...
Hello Steve / Davy, It's the same here with white light, Thorn Alpha 3's running 250w and 400w son were replaced by 140w cpo lamps in Inverness town centre,...

Street lighting does not reduce crime. Otherwise criminality would not go down to almost zero during power failures. I used to live in Dhaka, Bangladesh, where...

But since the unexpected upgrade/SON replacement in your driveway, have you found there's been a noticeable reduction in crime in your area Simon? Surley, this...
I was out and about urban exploring on Saturday. Our target was Stewartby Brickworks which has recently closed. Once the biggest brickworks in the world, it...
Hi, Fascinating stuff, looking forward to the full write-up on Urbex UK in the future. Unless my eyes are deceiving me, I see four bowled Alpha Eights in that ...
The argument to restore lighting levels back to their 1950s standards is not really a realistic option, considering that society has completely changed since...

Street lighting should only be used sparingly, on a needs must basis, when needed, where needed, and in the right amounts. It should not be used simply because...
Fantastic! At least Davy can write albeit in a primitive sort of way. Pete usually just signs with a spindly cross! Funny Petes just sold me some ESLAs- wanted...

Hi Claire, it's good to see such a big installation of the rare beasts still in existance. Your close-up of the Flying Saucer is a gret pic, almost like a...
Thank you Chris, I was last in the area about 17 years ago, so I was surprised that the installation was so intact. I think it would fantastic if a modern day...
Hi Simon, I wouldn't mind one of those wierd Beta 4's! it's also a nice small lantern so easy to store! Also, the metal arm the holds the Beta 4 on would be of...
