There is a little option button in top right "Thread" that takes you to the thread, but otherwise it is

You are correct that it was ground clearance over my driveway
but the old wires were only 15 odd yrs old and were put in by the SECV.
( And the reason they went over my driveway in the first place was they had to minimise how much of the cable went over my neighbours property )
Also, it wasnt done by a few blokes with a ladder, it was a full blown truck with bucket, and the back of the truck had enough parts on it to wire up a street.
Even if they couldnt replace the crossarm, they could have done the neighbours supply as it was an old exposed copper job.
