Baillie Windfarm recently had a competition for local bairns to name a Turbine. In passing today I noticed that 'Thor', "Cool Caithness', 'Castlehill' and my personal favourite 'Max Power' have been labelled, anyone know what the other 17 are called?

One should definitely be named ywindythesecond.

A pair should be named olivia and tilter.

I forget the names of the forum's other tilters....

I thought someone cheekily suggested that turbine number 2 should be called windythesecond?

Arguably, if ywindythesecond didn't exist then Baillie windfarm wouldn't either. ;)

Yes quite.... there should also be a Smeghead turbine given the affection/adulation and support given to this development by our very own Rheghead during the public inquiry. He submitted supporting information and attended the inquiry day by day, sitting with the developers, yet to this day continues to deny that he has ever been "in their pocket". He gave the impression at the inquiry that he was a typical Reay resident yet can't see any of the turbines from his house! I think this says it all. I do admire his posts on many a subject but Baillie is not something that his posts were fully warranted on.

I continue to be a typical Reay resident who debunks the lies made by past and present antiwind farm activists and I continue to have no personal financial connection with Baillie Windfarm.

Oh, and you need to look in your own backyard before you make such scurrilous accusations, that is why you resigned from CWIF, wasn't it?

I'm amazed that more anti-windy tilters aren't locked up for the masses of lies they tell to the public.

The same goes for secessionists.

Can one hunt them in the dark legally?

No need secrets we are right here in the daylight honey.... Whats the saying? Come and have a go.....? Green not Greed, you are always very free with your accusations about Rheghead but i have never seen any concrete evidence. Im sure if you had you would have given it to those people who matter and shouted it from the highest wind turbine you could find. If you have no evidence then I would suggest its time to talk about someone else!
