Barnsley Work Control 1998
In the summer of 1998, I worked for a short while for B.T. in Barnsley control !
As a national company, B.T. takes part in the
" Take your daughters to work" day!
As an Exchange based Engineer, i was asked to do a short presentation
on Telecommunications, Past, Present and Future!
The following photos were taken on that day!
