General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

I was heading up to Barrow in Furness in the truck today, and as I glanced over to my right across the up till now unspoiled hill's, there was around ten of these huge wind turbines in what we are lead to believe are called a "Wind Farm "
They looked like some sort of huge alien's blotting the landscape, I pulled up at a fuel stop and got talking to a local truckdriver, I pointed the turbines out and commented on how much electricity they would have generated in the strong wind's last week.
He laughed and told me that when the wind is strong the turbines have to be stopped to avoid the bearing's overheating and seizing up, I couldn't believe it,
So if it is too windy, they can't be used, ha ha very strange
