Spent this evening dealing with I'm once again astonished how good their communication and response is. Hourly proactive calls or texts to me. Compare to who do next to nothing, twice daily updates on their website if you are lucky. Also no charge for UKPN to visit to check if the fault is their or customer side.. compare to who smack the customer for £100+ if a fault is found customer side. We need to demand better from all other service providers.

Spotted at the corner of Lawrie Park Avenue & Lawrie Park Gardens is a manhole sporting the inscription "The Crystal Palace District Electric Supply Co Ltd".

Google tells us the company was set up in 1891 to supply power to the Palace from the Sydenham Power Station - location unknown. They also served the houses being built in the area - and it is still doing so as part of I guess.
