    Sorry Guv, BUT

    Sorry Guv, BUT it was not my fault. He did not torque up the bolts properly!





    NOW the really worrying thing is as far as I could tell it was the control mast for a wind farm



    Regards

    The empty office, and the Webley with a single bullet perhaps.

    Sorry Brendan

    I think you are wrong! Someone turned the electric fan in the foreground up too high and blew over the tower.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    Errr no! Currently am having a little trip around Asturias in Northern Spain. Had a quiet drive along a ridge on a wind turbine road, very similar to the ones we did in Portugal Jon.



    Will stick a few more photos up on AULRO later but there are a few up HERE


    Must admit I did not think about the Big Bad Wolf story as possible explaination.

    Could image the conversation in the office going along the lines of


    Sorry Guv, it was not my fault Guv, he must have dropped a clanger on the calculation.

    Nonsense, sorry Guv it was not my fault, he must have over torqued those bolts.

    Rubbish Guv, he must have specified monkey metal bolts Guv.

    Anyway Guv who's idea was it to build it so close to that ruddy big fan???

    etc, etc.


    Would have been a 'lively' discussion to have eavesdropped on.


    Regards


    Brendan

    This is not what I want to see. We have a wind farm project in progress here now and I often wonder about these sort of issues

    Great pics there mate, looks like you had a fantastic time in Spain. Looks like some brilliant countryside there too.
