Build day.A field, a gate and a delivery slot. By four o'clock there's a stage on it.
Lights on before you need them.Four X-ECOs on the corners. Masts to 8.5 m, one button each, and the ground goes from grey to lit.
Doors at seven.Stage, crowd, car park — and a queue that can see where it's going.
Kick-off under lights.Same field, same four towers, a different Saturday.
Then it's Monday.Night shift on, and nobody's stopping for the dark. Your machines, our light, and a bowser keeping the dust down.
Nothing leaves dirty.End of shift, wash-down at the gate. Our jet wash on your plant, and a tower turned round so the man can see what he's doing.
Nights on the track.Rail possessions and carriageway repairs, lit low and aimed at the work — not at the houses behind it.
When it can't wait for daylight.Disaster recovery, search and rescue, and a relief command area that can see what it is doing.
Show day.Show ring, bunting and hot food, lit until the last trailer is off the field.
Bonfire night.The fireworks are yours. The light on the ground is ours.
