Had a bit of an eek moment today. I had walked down a road that i know is not a circular route, so i only have the option to turn around which is fine - on my way out a Power line was a bit low but no danger of touching me and i had a "hmm wonder what you happen if it did touch you"Anyway, on the way back on the other side of the road was probably the reason why it was low..another Power line snapped in half with the wires sticking out! It had a cone at it, which i didn't take much notice of the first time, but i did kind of freeze and wonder what the hell do i do? There was no other safe way back to the yard, it was getting dark (and snow forecast hence going out early)Eventually i decided to cross the road as far as i could possibly get away from it, and as it was higher than my horse i knew if it did swing it would only hit me not him. Rang to report it but it was already known about and the line was actually dead, but it still could have gave me a fair whip i expect.
