Lighting the (one) way...that's what friends are for.

Here in Barrou they have decided that the street lighting should go off at 10.00 pm - in an effort to save money I suppose - that and the fact that the elderly population don't go out clubbing much any-more.

On the night of my birthday bash our neighbours put in a special request for the lights to remain on to allow us save passage home. The above shot shows the street lit only one way as the sign shows, as behind us it was pitch black! I can only assume they canvassed the neighbours to see who was attending and knew it was those and us down this end!
