Too much bother to sort them out. If something goes wrong they just add a fresh one. That way I guess a lot of those are dead.
Doesn't part of the US look similar, no putting lines in the ground?

Maybe, but I haven't seen bundles like that. Not too long ago, the price of copper was such I'd have thought someone would have recycled the dead wires.

The building sags nearly as much as the wires!


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

agree on sags
I was looking at the wires and the weatherboard cladding behind them and wondering if my eyes were having a mental!

That's a very nice treatment. I just discovered the inverse effect a few weeks ago. Really fits this image.
