Yep, I’m with you on this. A couple of hundred yards of coast would be nice, as I do like a bracing beach walk in the wind.

Could just paint a horizon on it, no one would notice.

Which one is you?

Just to clarify, this is a moment from the Young Apprentice when the beardy chap blamed the failure of the task on wind, claiming it was his least favourite weather condition.

My guess is the one on the right

I really enjoyed the Young Apprentice thing.

I don’t think there’s a way to prevent the wind from happening (which, to be fair, I think you realise as you’re suggesting sheltering from it).

HOWEVER, what if we could counter it? Have giant fans blowing air at the same speed in the opposite direction of the wind. That would, in theory (and almost certainly in practice) create absolute stillness.

I flipping love being out in the wind.

(unless it is also raining)

You could wear a wind suit with fans blowing away from you. Probably still best not to do anything.

it’s not great in the sky either unless you enjoy turbulence when you’re up there

I reckon that would just create a lot of turbulent air wouldn’t it?

I fucking love it!

Hahaha I doubt it!

get a load of wind farms, they’ll take the energy out the wind which will cut it down dramatically and solve climate change, two birds with one stone.

That’s what they want you to think!

Unfortunately wind farms will kill far more than two birds.

hopefully it’ll get rid of some of those evil seagulls and leave us the decent animals

Lunch in the park would’ve been way more pleasant and warm in the park if it hadn’t’ve been for the WIND. I did get to feed a couple of chicks just like this though:
