Hi

Can anyone reccommend any accommodation that would be suitable for a family of 6.

Its two adults, two teenagers and a 4 and 3 year old

Really if there was accommodation for 4 that was spacious it wouldn't be a problem as the little ones dont take up much room and have their blow up beds with built in quilt so they can sleep anywhere.

It would be for 2 or 3 nights and not to expensive. Self catering prefered but flexible. Would prefer Lerwick but anything will do just to get away for a couple of nights

Thanks

Hi

Can anyone let me know the phone number for argos in Lerwick. My mum has come over to place an order and we cant find the number.

I thought they did have a 2 minute silence at 11am

There was an announcement that they were at the memorial in lerwick then they went silent

i went through all the stations i have tuned into my car (all 3 of them) and they were all silent

Hi

I'm trying to get a list together of all the activities for toddlers in Shetland.

I'd like to get my daughter into something but don't know what. Is there any ballet, or other activities that would suit a 3 1/2 year old?

sugar almonds or chocolate liquors mmmmm not had sugar almonds for years

i know in a lot of hotels now, tips have to be declared wheather its housekeeping, waiters or reception that gets the tip. even in a small 30 roomed hotel it still has to be declared

it then goes through the books and now comes up on a payslip each month.

Hi

Can anyone recommend a nursery in town for a 21 month old? What sort of cost would you pay per day and what are the waiting lists like?

thanks

does anyone know any company from south that delivers bathroom/kitchen tiles up here

does anyone know of a company that will deliver bathroom tiles up here?

hi

i spoke to the staff at edinburgh airport last time i flew and they were saying that even though its flybe they still go by logan air policy or something like that.

so it doesn't matter if your 1kg or 20kg over there is a one off charge of £10 so you might as well fill another case up to 20kg

i was all set to pay my £10 a couple of months ago when i flew. i found out my 15 month old daughter gets a 20kg allowance even though she sits on my knee.

I find that even in outlying areas the mobile phone signal isn't to bad, and if you are out of range a 10 - 15 minute walk gets you back in range.

I'd like to try that when heavily pregnant in the snow with a 1 year old to push!!! you'd freeze before you got anywhere

i've tried to make calls on that road and the only place you get a signal is just when i get to the bottom of that big hill past tingwall airport

travelling from whalsay on the ferries the car is always stocked with blankets and food

i guess you'd just have to wait for the next passing car and hope it stops

Hi

I've often wondered what you'd do if you broke down in Shetland.

Everytime I drive from Whalsay to Lerwick I always wonder what would happen as there are no houses for miles, no signal till your nearly at town. Some times i've drove all the way and only passed a couple cars.

Especially in this weather I really wouldn't like to be stuck in cold conditions with a baby in the car.

Would your mobile be able to call 999 even if its out of signal and get help that way?

Just noticed Dunelm Mill deliver here. They say they cant guarantee their 5-7 days standard delivery but items should be here within 11 days

i know, i would love to stay in the hospital accommodation but its just bad timing that the isles accommodation is closed

they are apparently opening 4 rooms up, maybe on a ward or something. i don't know much about these but i would really need somewhere that i could make up my daughters meals. i'm popping into the hospital through the week to find out more

i'm finding it difficult to book anywhere like self catering. if i have the baby early a lot of the self catering places want a months notice for cancelling. so i could end up booking for 2 weeks and not going and getting a big bill

also, need somewhere so when i'm in labour my mum can come up and babysit

Just thought I'd let you know, before you spend hours on their website like me!!! Mothercare have stopped delivering certain items to Shetland.

I had a childrens book, bubble bath and wooden trike in my basket and they wouldn't deliver any

When I called up they said they'd stopped delivering bulky items to Sheltand.

Does anyone who's had to book private accommodation know if your daily accommodation allowance will cover having to pay if you have to cancel due to having the baby early and not ending up going to aberdeen?

looking into self catering and would need to book for 2-3 weeks. i'd still have to pay even if i have baby early and cancel. if that makes sence

http://www.scotrail.co.uk/

i'd use this website to see if the flights fit in with the train

i would check train times from dyce first. i just missed one by seconds and the next one was an hours wait in the pouring rain.

it is very quick though

hi

does anyone know what sort of accommodation allowance the lady gets? shopping around for best deal

does anyone know a company that i can get a cheap bathroom sink with cabinet under it and toilet from?
