oh go on the mods will delete it anyway just dont mention the chief ex or he will sue you. remember the million lent to his brother. as they are all independent why do they seem to follow what they are told. in other places your indies are very willing to do what the voters want not what a few big wigs with an intrest in a small isle off lerwick say.

horse droppings would be better construction materials than reinforced concrete and its organic too. if nigel was ever to come up here and i would guess its a very big if. he would make life more intresting. can you imagine SIC coping with his ideas that alone would be worth his move. if he really means to build these things he must have a costing for each unit and plans. if they are practical i would even let him have a bit of land to build it. so nigel how about it

nigel spend some time reading shetland council building regs. they dont even like non standard roofs nots sure what your pods would do. could see them as holiday accom but houses no.

NOT WINDY HA

how much are the toilets in the town costing.

what percentage will be lost from the fossil record of co2. yes its likely to cause global warming but once the cycle changes we then have very big problems coming our way.

less of the anti english i was born here so im better c--p. and yes the royals are hence a number of nasty genetic illness.

but thats just saying the earth is warming from a cold period. this is based on tree ring data but i dont know enough to check it out. http://www.c-pol.com/Fun/Blog/Loehle2007small.gif thats why greenland was populated and later abandoned by the norse. just found this as well http://www.sierraclub.ca/national/programs/atmosphere-energy/climate-change/vostok-ice-core.jpg so there is an increase but only some is man made. lot more complicated than just mankinds fault. the changes caused the ice ages so if the cycle keeps on we will be grad for any warming we can get. by the look of it in the next few thousand years.

check the volcanic record for any big eruptions. 1 nucler bomb doest equal a small volcano.

will he get 1,2,3 pensions when he quits.

ive herd that they are movin north with the fish.

so you must be your brothers uncles sister with all the inbreeding. over a million ancestors but only a few thousand folks on the island. no wonder they could find norse blood in the shetland gene pool.

yep by the way why do scots do bonfire night blowing up the english goverment would have been good for scotland would it not. always thought it was very cruel burning poor old guy every year when it was others that were the leaders. why not Catesby night, after all any one stupid enough to want to stand next to a few tuns of gun powder must have been stupid.

would the smoke not have a cooling affect

wife has to eat it every day and has to serve it up to.

you mean you could not find a tall blonde shetlander. i have heard that a lot of shetland women prefer mainland british spouses to shetlanders because they are not so drunk. i find this comment shocking can it be true that the women are not thrilled by cross dressing vikings. again this is not my view so please dont burn me at the next fire festival.

the food you would have had would have come from the staff canteen a lot created by the staff to make up for the muck sent by the kitchen.

you have to be careful with the earlier temp readings as the equipment was not always accurate. but yes there is a trend for warming. some can be natural but the rest man made. you have to remember that the 1860 onwards was at the end of europes little ice age hence frost fares on the thames. the climate was warmer in the roman and early medieval period hence wine growing in england. then and now. shame it cant stop the cold winds its freezing.

well said, there is always something wrong when someone percives that they are better than someone else by accident of birth. blast and im a royalist too. hope it does not get like wales were if you cant speak welsh you have difficulties getting a job.

they have been cut and dont ask a nurse about the slops that are served up to the patients. this is not an attack on the workers but the management they there to make a profit. i dont know why its so hard to provide a good catering service but its poor.

up helly Aa you mean the victorian creation or the old festival that is simular to lots of other new year activities burning things wether tar wickerwork or animals/people is a lot more celtic than norse. the implyed comment is that if you cant trace your roots back to the middle ages your not a true shetlander. i agree the shetlanders dont care if your from a diffrent culture. i suppose the yearning to be a viking has a lot to do with the old shetlanders desire to rewrite history. what would it have taken for the opressed shetlander to kick out the scots lairds that ill treated them. the english/scots were happy enough to rebel in the 15th-18th centuries against there leaders/kings. why did the shetlanders not. the norse shetlander was happy to nip over the north sea to take on the norwegians so why was there no revolt. the germans had the policy of having to show a 4 generation tree to prove that they were pure german. with the idea that you need to prove about 20 generations hitler would have had difficulty to raise a five aside team. so how many pure shetlanders is there out there.

about time. it should never have been otherwise.

or what a shame the next thing is they will want a second home allowance for there lerwick home and do john lewis deliver up here.

pure blood shelties aye thats rubbish. your the same as the rest of the uk a bunch of mongrels. with a titchy pit of pict, at bit more norse(dane norwegian northern german), some scots.even dare i say some anglo saxon, not forgetting the dutch for those with obliging female ancestors, and any other nationality that has bred with a pure blood. there are so many tall blonde shetlanders about after all. intresting you choose the 17th century to class a person as a true shetlander. you would need to go way further back if at all possable, as a pure blood englander with no irish scots ect. i discover that im not so pure with links to scotland ,norway,sweden, germany ive even got the origanal lords of the isles in the family plus a tartan thou not the correct hairly legs to wear it or the desire, ancestory is fun but to class someone because their 12 times removed granny was from unst is better than the one from birmingham is a load of b---ocks. and even if there was such a thing you would be that in bred you would end up with the most weird gentic illnesses that no outsider would want to lend you there jeans.

http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/climate/uk/stationdata/lerwickdata.txt met office stats not being clever but looking at the temp and sunshine totals there is no increase at lerwick they seem more vaiable but there is a pattern of highs and lows we seem due for a chilly winter last summer was one of the colder ones on record.
