Oh dear - generator the size of a small camper van located on forecourt nearby.

Ah well ,no doubt some tale of trouble and worse , neccesitating it's existence.

Looks like it's ear plugs for me and gratitude that I'm not living in the house it's supplying.

Are we sure it's a generator? Or a giant bee?

I was informed by the bloke down the pub, who reckoned that his mate's brother-in-law had it on the best possible authority that Kraftwerk had bought a rehearsal space on BR and were practicing for their forthcoming 'Droning On And On' tour.

I for one believe him.

For the the life of me, I can't see why Kraftwerk would be working on a plumbing job. It makes no sense.

Tarmacing on the other hand, I can see that. They'd have some fun with it. Triple fun if necessary.

They strike me as being half-decent sparks as well.

Though I'd not give 'em a half day as chippies.

    • August is one of the busiest times for the building trade. The clement weather makes it more reliable for planning jobs and shouting obscenities at passing ladies. Are you confusing brickies with hedge fund managers or the French?  It's easily done and they basically disappear for August.
    • I witnessed the Mini cooper going at about 100mph down LL towards Goose green, then it shot accross the roundabout a solitary police car a fair way behind..then this was followed by police cars going both ways sirens going. Anyone crossing the road would have been a gonner because the mini was ignoring red lights etc. No idea if they got them or what it was about but it was like something out of the Italian job.
    • What my friend saw yesterday wasn't a drill, as has been suggested. She's a met police officer, so I think she'd know the difference. I even checked the court circular - saddo that I am - and it wasn't for a royal. Still intrigued... Sounds like the mini today was a police chase?   
    • There are lots of trees, shrubs, a pond and a large area of wild grass all of it which are habitat for a range of flora and fauna. Do you mean the common- that is mostly grass, some of it laid over an old car park? However, the festival won't use that bit, they prefer to be "nestled" within the park (more aesthetically pleasing for festival goers, who like to be 'at one with nature' while they enjoy the booming bass, and great marketing for the festival owners who can also use the plentiful trees as a sound barrier- it saves them forking out to mitigate the noise.
