    That was a good video, itsme, if only because it played without buffering once! I wish I could get You Tube to go as smoothly as that on my archaic connection. :(

    I think the lady at the end was right; people are more sceptical now they've had first hand experience. Fullabrook is a carbuncle on the Barnstaple landscape, but apart from that, the darn things aren't proving reliable, or as quiet as originally claimed.

    Oh, and some places they've been parking turbines don't seem naturally suited to wind generation. Where I am isn't supposed to be great, but in a valley close to Honiton??? confused-smiley-013.gif

    cant find the ranch on the census, but it was hard trying to find it when i was at the archive place..

    also tried looking for my family tree with my unusual maiden name...it is a bit confusing, and it shouldnt really as there is only a hand full of us, its not as though my maiden name was jones or morgan:rotfl:

    kitten and stray are having a mad one....running and chasing each other...why cant they do it during the day, not at silly o'clock in the morning:rotfl:
