Exciting stuff. About to go and pluck my eyebrows ?

Whereas I thought Street Lighting Times was a new magazine, shortly to be in the guest publication slot on Have I Got News For You.

Do you mean the ones that are square with LED arrays like https://goo.gl/maps/SmviKhRUdKt ? They illuminate a heck of a lot more ground (and first floors of buildings up to 30m away) more brightly than the previous amber lights did, but maybe Amey has misconfigured them.
