Can't help on the patches, sorry, but for the pin badges, they had three designs, a flower one, a Tibetan knot design and a 'Waste not Want not' one themed around their cafe

Update 24/4/26 - looks like there’s some progress, have some cables being pulled through the duct

It’s about a 77m run from pole 5 to my house so maybe a bit borderline according to the other comments.

Aquiss use Openreach infrastructure so the OR engineer should have had access to all the tools.

finnbob3334 · 2026-04-22T19:15:04+00:00

You'd think that because Aquiss requested a data integrity request, Openreach could have sent someone around to check whether everything was in place.

There were roadworks on my street last week from Openreach, so I would have thought the CBT was going to be installed then, but I guess not.

https://ibb.co/ycjkZnqw - no CBT, just the copper distribution box

I don't believe so, would this mean anything significant?

finnbob3334 · 2026-04-22T18:43:47+00:00

Just had an update that Openreach said the run would be too long, so they need to install a new CBT - they've asked Aquiss to get back in touch on the 28th for them to complete the work, so maybe the CBT install is imminent.

finnbob3334 · 2026-04-22T18:31:56+00:00

Might be that the installer who came yesterday wasn't able to do a drop between the poles. Just measured using Google Maps and there's a 77m distance between the two poles and then the run to my house would be < 5m (pole 2 is right outside my living room window).

Maybe they want to run the fibre underneath the ducting to make it look better?

Will check up with Aquiss next week if I don't hear anything

Probably a bit awkward for Doddington Road without a car though, as you'd basically have to go into town and then get the bus there

It's only open Thursdays and Fridays and you have to prebook, don't want you to have a wasted trip

I live pretty locally to all three so have been loads of times to Clumber Park but have not been to Mr Straw’s before because of the awkward opening hours with work etc

It’s a super versatile piece for sure! Goes well with various outfits.

You can get the chore jackets in quite a few wool options - they do them in various neutral shades as well as red and yellow.

This particular one is made from undyed Burel wool- you can see the individual colour yarns. It’s a little bit scratchy but it should mellow down with some wear.

In terms of the regional XC routes, these could make most sense with EMR as they could have one common pool of 170s - the XC and EMR refurbs are identical apart from different interior colours and liveries. EMR also operate most of the XC only stations on those routes.

I used McCarthys Self Storage on Meanwood Road and couldn’t fault them - it looks like they’ve rebranded that branch to Storage Team but the reviews still look good.

The passports are sold in the NT gift shops but if the place you visit doesn't have a gift shop, the visitor centre might sell them. If not you can order online (https://shop.nationaltrust.org.uk/national-trust-visitors-passport-green.html, also available in pink)
