Best I could do mate (I was driving a trackered van so I could not go round the back)

Yes It was the adjacent cooling tower that was downed.

Anyone wanting the next one down details will have to email me. I am not going to make the info public. If I can find out which one is coming down next I might be able to get quite close to it.

Adam went to watch. He is going to film it and post it on Youtube. He seems toknow someone wno knows.

That confirms I wasn't seeing things as I passed by on the A1 early last Saturday, I could only see two towers remaining. Wonder if they pulled them down in quick succession?

6 am on 19 August 2012. (From Wiki)

The two that went down a couple of weeks ago on the same day as each other went down within 30 minutes of each other.

Unbelievable timing! If I'd been driving by almost 24 hours later I might have even seen them drop.

Four months too late for any tickets. All that is on the skyline are wind turbines, thousands of them.
