Wind turbines at B&Q - an update

dg · 2007-11-14T21:17:26+00:00

I posted just over a year ago after noticing B&Q selling windturbines, and a large thread developed on all thing windturbiney.These B&Q turbines seemed to be a really high price, and I recall thembeing by the main entrance, with dedicated sales people, and the'benefits' getting a bit of a hard sell. Later solar cells joined theparty.Anyway, I was mooching around B&Q yesterday and noticed the turbineand the solar cell, not at the main entrance, but tucked away in thefar corner of the store, covered in dust and surrounded by otheritems.It was like the the wallflower, out of place at a party, or that maddeformed relative, locked away in the attic for fear of embarrassmentand ridicule.Oh well, I wonder what next years must have will be? Air conditioningunits by the looks of things.dg

Hmmm. I'm not sure I want to read this, living as I do on the nearest thing to a hilltop Bedfordshire can manage, with a completely clear aspect to the West.

Might not be tree huggers - just compulsive "Buyers". "We must be first in the road to have one!

I guess they have a large wall mounted Plasma as well.
