About Me
- Alan R
- I am 59 and live in the North West of England with my soulmate Sheila. I have been backpacking and hiking since my early teens. Those early days were mainly spent in the Peak District. Having aquired the basic skills i have since enjoyed both long backpacking trips and shorter hikes in Northern and southern Spain, Iceland, Norway, Madeira, New Zealand, Tasmania, Australia, Majorca, England, Scotland and Wales. Many people i have met along the way have remained friends to this day. It is a pleasure to have met them.
Do I detect a hint of Schadenfreude?
ReplyDeleteSurely not...
:-)
Surely not bearing in mind the heat of the blade. That's a damn good word for this time of night
ReplyDeleteLet the wind blow high
ReplyDeleteLet the wind blow low
Through the [turbines] .....
Brian, Hope it doesn’t harm those ground nesting birds!
ReplyDeleteOne blew down as well. Couldn't take 50mph gusts when the blades 'free-wheeled'!
ReplyDeleteHi Gibson. Only one. Shucks!
ReplyDeleteAfter urgent talks with the industry spin-doctors, they are to be re-branded as "Breeze Turbines"
ReplyDeleteOldmortality. You know, hindsight is a wonderful thing. You have to feel sorry for legislators who put something that looks like it was designed for desert type countries into harsh Scotland, don't you?
ReplyDeleteNah, just take the P.
An impressive picture, Alan. What a shame it is not New Year, that would make nice fireworks.
ReplyDeleteIt's blowing here, too. Gusty wind with icy rain/sleet showers.
I hope nobody got hurt, no wild creatures either, but when I saw the front of the Metro on this morning's train I did entertain a few unworthy thoughts.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope the energy company sees it as part of their responsibility to clean up the debris.
Maria,
ReplyDeleteIt makes you wonder why they were up there in the first place with a camera.
Byeways,
ReplyDeleteNothing unworthy i would have thought.
