After asking a few questions here, I finally had FF installed on 
Thursday. Although the landline was UG cable, various garden changes 
meant that the only viable route was overhead from the original pole.
The Openreach engineer was a 40 year service guy and made a really great 
job, both inside and out. Lots of iced lemonade kept him hydrated for 
the 4 hours plus time he took. The contacted speeds were below spec but 
he advised to change the Ethernet cable to Cat6 and that did the trick.
Now on 150 Mbps for £22 per month. To have continued with FTTC would 
have been £41. Very happy.

Regards.
