Protesters

[DN22 Gardening]

Don't know if its been on the national news or not but some protesters have invaded one of our local power stations, West Burton

 

They're camped out on the middle chimney.

 

there's been loads of police activity in the area, bikes, cars, choppers etc.

 

Sat in the truck having a bite to eat today and every time one of them drove past us they were giving us the eye.

 

I thought it'd be funny to wander down the road a bit and play with a climbing kit.

 

it wasn't long before a bike went past, turned round and pulled up and asked me "what the F$^K i thought i was doing"

 

all innocent i looked up and asked him the way to the power station main gate

 

Well I thought it was funny.

 

The same officer drove past us an hour or so later when i was dangling from the same kit, 30' up, over the road, roping some willow limbs down.

 

I did give him a big wave

[teepeeat]

some people - no sense of humour :lol:

 

Whats the protest about?

[DN22 Gardening]

they're against the "dash for gas"

 

or in proper speak, the fact that the power generating co.s are building so many gas fired power stations, thereby pushing the price of domestic gas up !!!

 

The same people will be the first ones moaning when the lights go out
