windy weekend (or not)

Just a brief one, really; it's the second day of my weekend shift, and I'm not feeling too good. I'm guessing it's the delights of the amoxicillin doing its job.

It's a bit of a shame I'm working today and tomorrow, since it's Wind Weekend across the country, celebrating (and extolling) the benefits of wind power. More details can be found at www.embracewind.com/weekend ... maybe there'll be another one next year?

On the subject of visiting power stations, it's a bit of a shame (although not at all if you were to ask Beth!) that Dounreay nuclear power station is being decommissioned, now - it would have been worth the traipse all the way to the top of Scotland to see it. With all the current work going on with nuclear fusion, though, it might be interesting to attend one of the Public Visit Evenings at Culham Science Centre.

I didn't realise that there was a separate police force for the protection of nuclear sites and materials... I can't see the same happening for wind power.

Links of the day:

• www.xcom2002.com/doh/viewer.php : It's called D'oh The Humanity and consists of frankly incorrect internet moments... (note: some not suitable for children or people)
