Installed today, new fibre cabinet adjacent to cabinet 29Good news for all connected to Seacroft Exchange. MYSEA.http://streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=432765 ... 30_11.71_W

Shame I'm connected to Cross Gates exchange... Surely it can only be a matter of time...

There's lists at http://www.superfast-openreach.co.uk/where-and-when/ and Seacroft gets activated in December. Horsforth and Harehills get done in March next year. The others listed in Leeds at the moment are Otley and Moortown which should also be done some time next year. No word on Crossgates or anywhere else yet, but Openreach makes announcements in stages so they should get there in due course. I was slightly pleased to see the exchange code for Moortown is MYMOO, and disappointed that Horsforth is MYHSF rather than MYHOR, although I'm told you can get one of those on Globe Lane in the evenings. Pudsey is MYPUD (I'll have a treacle sponge and custard!) and Rothwell is MYROT.

Having a quick skeg trough the lists of exchange codes I also like the MYSEA for Seacroft and MYARM for Armley. Guiseley is MYGUI, which may sound like My Guy. Not in Leeds but MYELL for Elland sounds fun. Shame though that large cities seem to have no individual code, as Bradford would be MYBRA.

MY is Mid-Yorkshire region, the remiander of the tag of course is the exchange name rather than location as such.

It's not just the local stuff that has humorous possiblities.There are worldwide communications cables running under the sea.The one that connects South East Asia through the Mediterranean to Western Europe is known as SeaMeWee. Ahem!
