The Wind that Shook the Barley ... !!!

During the last few days we've had a cold and wet bite in the weather. I do hope this is not a prelude, at this early stage, of what to expect in the winter. However, I'm sure that I'm not out of order on saying that it is unseasonal in September which was previously a time for gathering the harvest.

We older generation have a rather unfortunate legacy in being able to recall from the middle of the last centuary. Our stories of halcyon days during sun laden summers and also traditional harvests when at one point the hayfork and the hayrake were the most prominent impliments, doesn't seem to make an impression on the modern day generation.

Somehow I seem to get the idea that the prospect that we are not going to make it with Renewable Energy and that it is going to be a close run race with Nuclear Power, still in the forefront in the demands of governments. Mind you, I have a feeling they don't want to admit that Wind Farms etc. are giving a good run for our money.

Having said this I am aware that it is possible that Nuclear Power could be a part of any development, that being all I will say, with some concern in view of certain problems. But not-with-standing, shall we reduce emissions that cause weather change. Or could I be shinning up the wrong tree???

The Wind That Shakes the Barley - a very fine film, but not for the faint-hearted.

I agree with you but don't think arnish from lewis will be happy-i am against nuclear fuel etc but think that windfarms really can help-------and sorry if i offense a lot of people I AM A MEMBER OF GREENPEACE!

I don't think Arnish is against windmills per se, just big companies building hige windfarms in special places and local people not having control over their environment. He just presents the facts and a balanced view.

I suspect some folks would not mind strapping Arnish to the center part of one of the rotating windmills. Good old Arnish. I wonder whether he gets special treatment at the NHS clinics (the NHS might take the posture that the better part of valor would be to video the whole visit?!)? When I arrive at the car dealer's to get a car serviced, they call their lawyer right away (half kidding).
