who owns Pendle hill ? - Page 2

steeljack · 22-11-2006, 06:33

What got me thinking about the ownership thing was that the UK seems to be very "pro- green" when it comes to energy generation , and I was thinking what a great site Pendle hill would make for a giant wind farm ...............(pregnant pause and gasps all round ) , knowing how the present Govt has no respect for tradition, I'm surprised Mr Blair and his international financial cronies haven't found a way to sell/lease off windswept "common lands" to replenish the public purse, and at the same time use the argument about self sufficency in energy production as the excuse.

When I was younger, I was told that if you knocked one of the farmers sheep over up there, you had to report it to the police and pay the farmer for the loss of his sheep, is that right?

You know the police are still investigating the great phantom Pendle sheep rolling scandal of the early 90's?

You do not have to say anything (else,) but what you do say may be used in court as evidence against you.

I thought Garinda was investigated for the great Pendle sheep dagging scandal of the early '90's?

If you get strong wellies they don't fall over ( apparently)

You have to watch them woolly bu**ers, if their legs get stuck in your wellies they can take you for one hell of a ride. People don’t realise that sheep are stronger than they look, them hill sheep don’t half move, especially if their heading down hill.

I know's........
