Love them! Think they add some real interest to areas of the countryside

Listen to what, precisely?
I visited a windfarm (the first in Wales, as it happens) having heard all the negative comments about how dreadful they looked, even worse to listen to, horrendous vibrations and unsightly infrastructure. Wind speed was about 30-40 mph and I went right up to the base (as I could only hear a faint swishing) and put my ear to the massive column; still couldn't hear much and felt even less in the way of vibrations. Site had a gravelled track which you hardly noticed and there wasn't a single trace of an overhead pylon, wire, etc
