DARRON SMITH

While I was working in Australia I wanted to put in a local sim, I asked the Auzzie vodafone to unlock my uk vodafone contract phone, they couldn't but they did tell me that it was illegal to have the phone locked to a contract and when I get home to go to a vodafone store and demand it unlocked. Which I did in Aberdeen and they unlocked it without charge, as soon as I mentioned wanting to talk with the boss?.. I don't know the ins and outs of it but that worked for me..

I can't understand this sharn, we are very lucky to have these men looking after us, it was not too long ago they had to droop off food to some idiot that run out after being snowed in for a few days, didn't hear any complaining about that....... Reinstate the man and sack the pen pushing idiot that made this a big deal..!

@Crofter I'm affshore Victoria ida Bass Strait enoo so SIBC isna commin in dat clear, ony y I wiz thinkin carry on lik dis might a been worthy o news crews a bit higher up da list as SIBC,

12 cages, 300.000 fully mature fish, presumed dead, valued at £2 million. why presumed dead?

just cant understand why no news? its not just the cost of the fish but lots of other stuff to think about when this kind of thing happens.

anyone have any info on the salmon cages that broke loose from their moorings around the xmas gales? I cant understand why nothing in the news about this? How many of these farmed fish have escaped into the wild? where are the cages now? who is going to try recover them? anyone know anything?

I was using the link on shetlink, but found another one now. Seams to be working, thanks

The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings. Anyone got any ideas? cheers Darron

I agree we dee fleabee seals are a pest and since they got the protection order have come to be far ower mony o dem same as bonxies and black backs even da auld mally is commin aboot da doors. da auld men telt me years ago u widna ever see a bonxie doon oot o da hill noo i widna pit it past dem tae tak da very een oot o a bairn in da garden. seals need to be kept doon on in a controled manner its a shame dir been shot while foo o young? yeah will i sleep da night? yeah.... and for da record I hate guns and widna ever hae wan...

sorry Njugle you need tae ae a good head on tae read yon fishing rights, but what i get from it is unless theres a protection order brought out buy the RSPB and in the case of Benston shetland anglers then anyone can fish these lochs with the land owners permission????

and who from???

ok tell me this. if a web site that many tourist might visits, states that to fish trout in shetland requires you to buy a permit. is this not fraud???? surly many lochs in shetland are still covered by scottish law???? scottish law states >>>>Until captured, freshwater fish are wild animals. Once captured, the fish belongs at common law to the captor.<<<<<

JimIvens thanks for your info can you tell me the story of Benston loch?

SKATERBOY Now I'm confused If you go to the Shetland Anglers Association it states >>>To fish for trout in Shetland, anglers must first buy a Shetland Anglers Association permit. These are available in Shetland or from this website.<<< http://www.shetlandtrout.co.uk/permits.html So what your saying is under Scottish law the captor owns his catch.

[***Mod Edit - Thread split from Blue Green algae thread***] well apparently the Spigge Loch belongs to the RSPB. How someone thought it was theres to sell i'll never know. anyone have any ideas on how that happened? Also if it is all above board what restrictions can they place on people using the loch?
