Strawb Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 I believe once in the '80's the police had to be called to one particular adult neep raider, though this was due to the fact the neep in question had just had Yaltox applied to it, and consumption would almost certainly have resulted in a visit to the Gilbert Bain, and possibly Goudies!

yonwifie Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 I remember re-visiting Whalsay about 6-7 years ago, and my eldest disappearing with da eens he'd been at nursery with (they were about ten by then) - came back late at night with a belly-ache and said they'd been neeping. I thought it had died out - but not in Whalsa' ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
