There's a plan to build a windfarm off the coast of Skeggy. I think it a good idea but there's a big section of the Skeggy community protesting about it.

I like the windmills of today. Tall, majestic, standing on the hilltops like giants trying to frighten off the birds. :)

with nuclear power back on the agenda, methinks every home should have like a mini nuclear power station installed (bit like central heating or a microwave oven) ..then we could all be self sufficient...special lixo bins (leadlined of course) could be provided to get rid of the nuclear waste...and the hubby of the house when he gets up to make the early morning tea could lower the mini rods into the core for the days supply - the mini reator could be included in one of em new plasma tv.
