BT said significant damage has been caused to two major BT cables at the junction <a href="http://www.suprasforcheap.com/men-supra-skytop-fashion-shoes-blue-p-218.html"><strong>men supra skytop fashion shoes blue</strong></a> of the Tamnamore Road and the Clonmore Road, near Clonmore village. It said extensive underground repair work was in progress and engineers would remain on site until full service is restored to all those affected. It said it hoped to complete the work on Thursday night or Friday morning. The company added that its security department was investigating the incident. BBC Northern Ireland's Gordon Adair said the thieves appeared to be after the <a href="http://www.outletbirkenstocks.com"><strong>papillio birkenstock</strong></a> copper in the cable. &quot;Copper really is a precious commodity at the minute and it appears these people will go to extraordinary lengths to get their hands on it,&quot; he said. He said the area affected was rural and as a result the loss of phone services was particularly tough for businesses. He said the local supermarket had been unable to process card <a href="http://www.cheapuggshortboots.com"><strong>cheapest ugg boots</strong></a> transactions.
