I quite like wind turbines. I think they are graceful. But only in the right place. Scotland is not the right place! And 83 of them? That's plain vandalism. Doesn't Scotland have hydro and oil? Seems to me it's just corporate greed.

Adobe Acrobat Reader is free, isn't it? Can't you just download it? However, here's a link to copy into your browser:

Bags It appears that we haven't the necessary Adobe Acrobat Reader [whatever that is!] However, there is a whole lot of objecting going on locally with ref to the wind farm issue. Almost every resident in Kintyre, including us, have signed a petition. angry

Try this one, soop

Bags Fri 07-Sep-12 15:42:57

I just tried it, soop, and it worked for me. I'll just see if I can find another....

Backsun (as Pooh bear would say).

Ooh, soop - they're censoring what you can read.....grin
