Ghostrider Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 A Scottish Government survey being reported in the Daily Record. Fiction at its best is it not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravetwin Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 So who's to blame? Women? Men? The Scottish government? Yeah! Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daegerty Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 So who's to blame? Women? Men? The Scottish government? Yeah! Lol I would guess the Scottish government. People rush into this marriage thing for the sake of having a big party and go in knowing that divorce is relatively easy if things go wrong.

Bravetwin Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Think when you mature as a human being you value your own feelings & the feelings of others in a more profound way & tend to put more value on feelings, emotion, love, romance, companionship, friendship etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jockdavie Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Shetland making the national news for the wrong reason. What? The islands may have been drenched by drizzle while the rest of Scotland basked in glorious sunshine yesterday. But when it comes to a contest for the quality of life, there is no better spot in the country than Shetland, according to a new survey.For drizzle read hailstones, otherwise "spot on" My name is John.

mikeyboy Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 I have noticed that a lot of couples seem to move to Shetland and then end up splitting up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobbie99 Posted January 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) A lot of this has to do with the large disparity between the sexes in Shetland .There is simply far more men than women .This has been the case since sullom voe started for eg recently we have had upwards of 3000 men working at the gas plant .All this goes a long way to explain the popularity of the mail order brides in Shetland.
