Better weather yesterday and today for installation. Yesterday nodes were installed at Asby Hall Mews and Holly Cottage. The latter is a new node location chosen to avoid using the church. It takes its connection from the Village Hall and offers connections to subscribers alongside the church and the Smithy in one direction and along the west side of the beck in the other. The installations will be completed on Monday when the cable connections are made and the devices powered up.
Today two subscribers were connected: one existing who has recently relocated from elsewhere in the village and one new subscriber.
Today's activity was fitted in during the morning to allow attendance at this afternoon's Eden Broadband Champions meeting organised by Rory Stewart MP. The meeting, held in Asby Village Hall, was attended by around 100 people from parishes all over the constituency and demonstrated the tremendous need for and interest in getting decent broadband services to remote rural areas. I was very pleased to be invited to give a presentation on how Great Asby Broadband does it.
