Today in the top 8 of the prem.some achievement that is They had the marvellous good fortune, that because of geographical isolation they had their own phone network....Kingston Communications, which was council owned. This meant when it was sold off for multi millions, the profits that came the council's way, were classed as a windfall, as opposed to being taxpayer's money.
