Hi Kent - dont worry about it theres nothing like a bit of good healthy robust discussion
Just to be clear , I do agree that your situation vis a vis swan deaths is appaling and that both the Energy company and NE should have done more to help at an earlier stage - I just got a bit side tracked on the RSPB issue as i felt that they were (again) being unfairly criticised as they were unable to do anything in this case.
In the long term i suspect that the only true solution will be to put the cables under ground - whether the energy company is willing to go to this expense will remain to be seen , but as i said above your best chance of forcing the issue is to try them in the court of public opinion by keeping the media pressure on, I wish you luck with this , and hope the problem is soon resolved.
