Aye..so wheres all the free leccy that the bloody things are supposed to supply???.....it wouldnt be so bad if they were actually green as it would look better than the battleship grey Turbines that grow weedlike out of every windward hillside in the Ccottish borders..arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
The only real gainers are the farmers that gets £12,500 of ground rent for each turbine on his ground and the company that erects the damn things who get subsidised for producing hardly any electricty.

Bring back Nuclear energy and Coal burning powerstations..Quick before the lights go out. :roll:


Cynic, they are so much nicer to look at then powerstations :D

All this intelligent conversation on the other posts is hurting my head and we now have a 'just for fun' so jokes are there to make us laugh. All I need now to complete my day is some idle chatter about nothing in particular but definately nothing that requires me thinking too hard :D
