I've just rented out an 18 acre smallholding of mine to E-ON for a six turbine windfarm. I should be raking in about £25k pa for EACH turbine!

Happy days! smile

All good here, kids happy and healthy, turnover up 50% year on year, nett profit up 150% YOY. I keep waiting for the downturn but it doesn't seem to be imminent.
