General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

There was something in one of the daily papers a couple of week's ago about a bloke and his wife who had erected one of these contraption's in his garden, then he got a letter off his local council telling him to remove it until he had applied for planning permission to erect the damn thing,
He went through the usual channels and was told it would cost around 6oo quid to apply and recieve the appropriate certification to erect the thing in his garden,
The bloke in question said " Nothing was said about such planning permission when I bought the wind turbine from B+Q, and no refund was offered when I took the damn thing back "
It just goes to show, that it may be eco friendly, but the damn council always want their cut
