Unsung heroes

Travelling up the M5 yesterday evening I noticed, as I sometimes do, work taking place on electrical pylons. Looks very complex and very dangerous - wires hanging down apparently haphazzardly, huge contraptions, cradles, pulleys and other bits of equipment hanging from the pylons. It looks like a complete mess but I'm sure it's all a highly organised project. What are these people called? Is it linesmen? One wonders what they do and how they do it.

Listening to xfm.nl. Every time they speak, though, it does sound phlegm-ish.

President Putin has man-breasts, or moobs as I prefer to call them.

Today on wikipedia I have been mostly reading about Champagne (and sabrage*), and bidets.
