Na Na piggywiggie get twa or tree black bags and cut hols in da boddams and smook dem ower da bairns heads ! No seriously its meant to be drizzly and heavier showers later and we all know how many times da forecasters get it wrong ! But Shetlanders are made of strong stuff .

Flool Thank you for your kind words . We are so passionate about our cause we would walk in a blizzard to raise money for J. D.R.F. Only those affecteted and their familys know how much we pray for a cure . thank you again .

Cant believe its only three days to go ! Had PM from Shetlandpeat he's on the boat . Very generous of him to come all this way to do walk . Thank you from all of us .

WOW Over 150 walkers ! Lets make it 200 ! Anyone hear the Radio Shetland re Insulin Pump ? More or less saying because where we live its a post code lottery whether Diabetics in Scotland can have one fitted !

Piggywiggie we would be better all meeting up at the Gibbie there will be a musical warm up before we set off !

Good idea everyone wear somrthing silly ! I believe we have a few bids on the silent auction

Piggywiggie Did you get logged on to just giving ?

My cousin introduced me to Strawberries and cracked black pepper . yum yum

Greetings hardy walkers . Just been looking on www.magicseaweed.co.uk and the weather is not too bad for the walk . showers and sunny intervals so lets hope the intervals is when we are walking !

Yes Piggy Wiggie will do . A lot of people think a dose of Insulin and Bobs your uncle . Not so diet exercise has a lot of input . Not forgetting hypos which can happen at anytime ie thats when sugar levels drop too low and a fast remedy is required . At the moment because our grandson is too young to realise what his symptoms are we have to monitor him 24/7 . His Mam can never have a full nights sleep . Thats why we try to give her as much support as we can ie sleepovers with us . Even our close family don't understand . With the walk and other fund raising ideas we hope they will . SO WATCH THIS SPACE !!! PS Thanks to Shetlink for enabling us to put our views forward you do a magnificent job .

We had takeaway from Chok Dee and on enquiring on the hotness of food the very friendly assistant told us they could make it any strength we wanted . Goes to show food must be freshly prepared !

We could all meet up at the homebake stall ! I am not doing walk I'm lookin after homebake stall My b/h is a marshal and my daughter and grandson and nephew doing the walk . Have you got someone with Diabetes ? You seem very keen to support us for that we thank you .

If you post Shetlandpeat he will help you like you I am c*** we computers if he canna help try Sandyg Good luck with sponsors

Piggie Wiggie are you not going to do the walk ?

Shetlandpeat identify yourself at the walk and I will give you copy of The Times ! If you complete the 5 mile walk I will sponsor you for £20 .00 !

Your right there golum . We the commitee are overwhelmed by response from walkers and local businesses that have sponsored enabling the walk to be staged .

Eleven days to go and counting ! 120 walkers now registered . Not too late to register you don't have to collect sponsors just make a donation on the day .

Brilliant news Sandyg 110 walkers . Anyone out there who want's to do walk there is still time to register or donate .

Yes piggiewiggy as long as children is accompanied by an adult buggies wheelchairs also permisable . also we are having a homebake stall to raise funds so if anyone out there is any good baking take it along on day . Happy walking

We stayed in City Wharf Appartments £60.00 a night sleeps four . All mod cons icluding wide screen tv . Maid service and copious supply of fruit bread rolls juice eggs cereal tea coffee and a welcome bottle of wine . You have the free use of gym round corner you could hire a wii or mobile phone and broadband supplied . Only downside it is only on Friday and Saturdays for cheap rate it's dearer thru week . The last time we were at a bed and breakfast we paid £35 .. a head .

Just had a takeaway from Chohk Dee fantastic fresh veggies and good size portions . Pity about decor very scruffy ! But will go back again .

If you conntact Sandyg she has the route drawn out . There are posters around town and it has been on Shetland News . If you feel you can't do walk we need helpers in kitchen for teas coffee etc .

Your right walk will go ahead despite any adverse weather . Only two weeks to go hope your getting some training in !

Just read in a newspaper that scientists have developed an Insulin Patch . But as usual it's only at the testing stage . Here's hoping .

Come on Shetlandpeat if you start walking now (collect sponsors on the way) you could go as a foot passenger (pardon the pun ) on the ferry only about £20 00 ! Even I would sponsor you !
