Alica! I think your dad should meet my parents (latest project: building a marsh using the rain water run off from the roof... )

To be honest, when I said close to I meant within 20 miles, but I think that's close enough...

Yes Pam, that is a nuclear power station, Sellafield to be exact. I could go on for hours about it, but I'll spare you all the details, just type the name into a search engine and enjoy!

It's located on the edge of the Lake District, one of our National Parks, so most of the time we got to look at something like this...



However, climb any one of those mountains, and admire the view of the hills, the lakes, the sea, the Isle of Man on a good day, oh yes and the itsy-bitsy nuclear power station. Lovely!
