Dunna be surprised when you're interrogated by the bus driver and taxi driver asweel. Some folk seem to be salivating at the opportunity of being given a peerie bit o power to hold ower the heads of us mere mortals. Be prepared to bite your tongue and give the whole "yes sir, no sir three bags full sir" (To any driver's who might read this I'm just poking fun, i realize you've got to be the most stressed out of almost everyone right now) Alot of what the government considers "essential" businesses in Shetland don't seem to consider themselves that important. I do feel sorry for businesses that might not consider the handful of customers they're getting each day to be worth keeping the doors open for and i understand trying to cut back workers as an attempt to compensate for loss of revenue. I don't know where you live or where you get your coal from? Have you tried getting coal supplied from anyone else? I'd certainly try to explore all options before i risked an arduous trip into Lerwick. Some of the more rural shops have coal on hand and are doing deliveries.
