    Not a question I was expected to be asked before I went on site at Drax
    Power Station today. Apparently they burn nut husks as biomass fuel and
    people with nut allergies are strongly advised not to visit site.

    Interesting place though, never thought I'd get on-site at such a place
    - wish I'd had more of a tour.

    My Dad was a project manager or something similar on the construction
    of Drax just before I was born.

    Actually got my dates mixed, it was probably the second phase he
    worked on 85-86 because we moved here when he'd finished.

    It's quite a good crop for biomass fuel. It grows on really shitty, even
    boggy ground. Some bloke from your part of the world has adapted a forage
    harvester to speed up the coppicing. His product partially fuels the
    Sembcorp biomass generator on Teeside.

    There's a very good pension and death in service benefit for being a
    henchman.

    It's a shitty old coal fired station and you can think yourself lucky
    you didn't go any further.
