Oh my ! You just reminded me of something.

On one of my trips to Bombay or Mumbai as is now preferred, we were being
driven back to our hotel but the traffic was moving slowly and there seemed
to be some kind of fireworks display up ahead.

When we got to the location we saw that a power pole with a down-drop had
somehow been damaged and the armoured cable was snaking about - making
intermittent connections and creating a fabulous light show in the process.
Mainly a kind of eery purple light actually. *Most* impressive !
