On the top of his home he built a small wind turbine to give him all of his energy needs
|
 |
Eventually he became the Lord of wind turbines in the whole of the kingdom, supplying green electricity to thousands of homes
 |
He is now moving to this castle on a hill
The outside of his office is almost completely covered in a green Union Jack flag
His original and quirky style continues in his showrooms where the windows are covered in cartoon graffiti illustrating green issues
The graffiti on the windows is changed every few weeks
 |
The windows are difficult to photograph due to the showroom inside, and the buildings across the road being reflected in the glass. They are, however, great fun.

Hello Rosemary:
ReplyDeleteThey do indeed! We are great believers in the mantra that small actions accomplished by many individuals do amount to significant change. In these small ways, we can change the world!!
A fabulously told story- ooooh, I do love a good yarn - which leaves me wanting to run off and investigate further! And what an encouraging message.
ReplyDeleteAn amazing post, Rosemary, thanks :-)
Dear Jane & Lance - thank you; my husband's motto is 'think global, act local'
ReplyDeleteThanks Kate - pleased you enjoyed reading it.
ReplyDeleteSomeone said that something well done is its own reward, but it's nice when others notice and buy into the vision, too! Thanks for the modern fairytale.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mark - you must have a passion in order to drive things through. He employs lots of enthusiastic young people who live his dream too.
