Titanic mills Y ou report folk enthusing about the beauty of 459ft wind turbines on a new boat tour of Rampion wind farm, eight miles off Brighton ( News, last week ). Would they like 820ft wind turbines to be erected across the South Downs? There are plans to dump 400 of these monsters all over our unspoilt Welsh hills — to power English cities. Why are these leviathans not in England? LJ Jenkins, Cardigan Pennies and pensions I received a letter from the Department for Work and Pensions on my 80th birthday informing me of a pension increase of 25p a week.
With this, my wife and I can afford to treat ourselves to a coffee every six months. By contrast, a train driver on an overtime rate of £600 a day can equal my weekly pension increase in 12 seconds. Ken Barrett, Topsham, Devon.
