Yes, we’re leaving the La Mancha region of the Baltic, having tilted at the monster mills and lost the fight. The local council, this evening, was unimpressed by our action group’s petition from 350 burghers, maintaining that the noise is no worse than the birdsong from the hedgerows and the new generation of turbines, far from being a blot on the landscape, will be a tourist attraction. Who could argue with logic like that? Oh and they’re cheaper to install than mills out to sea. So there. Think green. Yeah, right.
Fortunately we are well on the way to negotiating a not-too-painful departure from here by Easter, before the spreading wheat fields become an industrial zone.

Have you managed to sell your place that easily?
We are looking to sell three at once, only one is on the market yet and has had some bites, so perhaps things are looking up a bit on the property scene. We had put a very good price on it though.
Sorry about the turbines they’ll learn at leisure.
I’ve just noticed that each of the mills will be taller than the London Eye – and noisier. 😮
What an awful shame. I really cannot understand why these ghastly things are allowed, especially so close to houses.
A tourist attraction?
Yeah right, I think not!
