Info about wind power can be obtained from the Centre for
Alternative Technology, Near Machynlleth, Wales, whose web site is
http://www.cat.org.uk/  If you're ever in that area it's worth a visit.

There's a quite scenic rail line from Birmingham/Solihull too.  As
Roger is near Birmingham he could also get some help from Birmingham
Friends of the Earth, tel. 632 6909.
