Windmills
HRH Prince Charles doesn't fancy the idea of a windfarm in the vicinity of the Castle of Mey, the childhood home of the Queen Mother. It's up in the highlands and hardly likely to bother many people and from where the Queen Mum is right now I can't see her having much of an objection either.
Aren't they supposed to be environmentally friendly? Aren't they a renewable source of energy in this age of diminishing resources?
This prompted me to wonder how other people feel about them.
Personally although I wouldn't want one right outside my backdoor as it would probably be quite noisy I do actually find them quite a pleasant sight up on a hillside. A darned site more attractive than a nuclear power station anyway.
Busman says that's probably because we've got a baby one of our own up at the caravan.
