will self in praise of wind turbines

Will Self has written a really interesting article on wind turbines, the countryside and human interaction with it here.  I must admit that I like wind turbines – and there was something very profound and beautiful in walking up to them – over many hours – in remote sierras in Spain.

It was broadcast on the 8.50 pm Friday, 8.50 am Sunday spot on Radio 4 and great to hear someone say something positive about them. I’ve almost given up reading my local paper because there is a vitriolic letter against them more or less every week. But then I am the person having Solar PV arrive on my roof by the end of this week, not this time next month!

Good wishes to you and Meenakshi for next week. Give my greetings and best wishes to Johnnie Walker, should you see him in Santiago and thank bim for a brilliant blog.

I’ll look at the Will Self article, but I must tell you that I’m not a massive fan of wind turbines (or Will Self)! This is not the time or place to enter a big discussion about them, but I might do a post about them one of these days! Have a fabulous camino … and looking forward to your reports…

Thanks both of you. I realised when I posted that this would divide opinion!

I’m really looking forward to the Camino – greetings will be given and reports will be made

Andy
