Skullduggery afoot?

Much as I dislike them, if sabotage is confirmed, it would be a stupidly dangerous act. Those things can easily kill people when toppling over.  >:(

Now that is serious and beyond any joke :o :o :o :o :(

So.. now we'll not only have to put up with these eyesores in the countryside but we'll be denied access to the area for miles around too in case we've got a pocketful of spanners. ::)

Still, a very irresponsible thing to have done. One of them landing on the bonce would smart a bit, I reckon. >:(

I reckon the chances of a windturbine in a field toppling over and hitting someone is slim to be honest....  :-\  But think of all the diced lamb!!  :)

However they are cropping up in built up areas so that's a worry...  :(
