The "table" is doing very well. I keep the eggs in a cooler box with daily changes of freezer blocks. It has been going a couple of weeks and I have made about £20! There are usually some very nice, yummy scrummy banana muffins in there too and I might put in some chocolate brownies to test that market if anyone is interested!!! Please give me your empty eggboxes. Leave them beside or in the box. Thanks Appreciated. Cheerful chickens!

But I don't want to listen to my radio via my telly or my computer (btw, I do know you can get Classic FM on puter, even a Mac!) but in my car, when I walk the dogs (on my phone), out and about..... and all my kit will have to be changed over according to the latest news. http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2009/jun/16/digital-britain-analogue-radio-switchoff

So then all our analogue radios will be redundant! What a waste. I will mind slightly less if I can get Classic FM.

When will Shetland get DAB Digital radio? Anyone know anything about this? (***MOD Edit - Merged with existing 'Digital Radio' thread***)

Kicked

I must say that keeping this wild animal alive for the sake of life itself, if it cannot walk and have a normal wild animal life, does not sit well with me at all.

Bottles, eh? Makes a change from the Shetland Rose. I agree though, it pisses me off mightily and to those who chuck them on the hill tracks, it is no better place for them either.

Perhaps you could give us an example of where you have been refused a job because of your postcode? Or an example of how you were refused a job because of your postcode? When you were not offered the job, did you ask why and they said "it is because of your postcode"?

She probably won't speak with a Shetland accent or dialect. None of mine do. We moved up here when one was 1 yo and the other 3yo. They both have English accents because that is how we speak at home.

Only if you buy your Mac direct from them. If you buy it from another third-party retailer, then you have to pay the cost of sending the item to the recognised mender. That is why I buy everything from Apple direct. They have to foot the bill then for getting it to and from the menders too.

Thanks - I saw that and read You can get the bonnet open without the cable but as said above - a public forum prob not the best place for me to say how which is why I asked for pm's. Anyway still failing. Tried with molegrips and failed. Any other thoughts. Frances

Tried that - there is no give in the bonnet at all. Fx

Has anyone got that I could borrow for 1 day in August a large water boiling urn/container so that I can make tea/coffee for a large group of people at a time? It must have a tap and either gas or mains electric. Many thanks - donation to charity given. Will collect and return in pristine condition. Cheers Frances 01595 809 432

Does anyone know how to release the bonnet of a Yaris without using the cable as it appears to be defunct. Is there some alternative method, apart from an angle grinder? If so, please pm me a method. Do not reply to this thread as it may be giving out information some should not have! Many thanks - appreciated.

Male, female, age, skills, aspirations, usefulness? good at? have done? worked with? willing to? likes/dislikes, qualifications, hobbies, total anorak about ....

I know, I know (embarressed grin!), but I couldn't remember who was who and where and by the time I couldn't spell Nyugggggle, Njuggle or remember anyone else, looked on the Memberlist, realised it was huge, couldn't be arsed to wade through a post trying to find a contribution from a Mod, then wandered about the FAQ for a while, I gave up and wrote my thread. I just think there might be an easier method for thick-o's like me, or someone relatively new to the board. And now, like buses.......

Thanks for that. Didn't get this week's edition (everyone thought the other would buy it scenario, so we wound up with nowt!).

Can anyone mind which edition of the Shetland Times has the Objection Form to the Wind Farm. I have got all my old ones out and can't seem to find it or is it available online anywhere. Cheers Frances

Thanks, peoples. I just think that it might be a good idea to have some kind of "report" button or a list of mods to be easily found at the bottom of every page, ie a direct mod pm button. Of course, it may well be abused and that is why there isn't one, but I did have quite a time, and gave up eventually, trying to locate a mod (I failed btw) until someone kindly pm'ed me a list. I navigated to Memberlist (but it is huge), To FAQ - no help there and then lost the will.

Oh bad luck! What were the chances!? Hope husband was captured on film holding a chicken and both grinning from ear to ear like Wallace and a Happy Chicken or was it more like this? http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e302/Frances144/tweedy.jpg

It is difficult to alert the mods about a post. I have just tried and failed. I can't find a list of the mods either to pm one re my concerns. I have a concern about a post which will probably end in a slanging match shortly or a libel case! Cheers Frances

Brilliant! I got to herd cows on horse-back. Best fun I've had for ages!

Mr Patterson is very welcome to come and look at my 200 acres and 40 ponies now (note to self to change sig). He would find nobody underfed, unhappy or unloved. Every animal has a companion (even our stallion) and is regularly wormed, feet-trimmed and looked to. Is there a problem with my signature that I am unaware of? As for setting terriers on vermin? It is legal and acceptable. My Patterdale terriers are fast efficient killers who have been bred specifically for this job by experts (Nuttall and Gould bloodlines, if I remember correctly). They do not play with their pray, just dig it up and instantly kill it. They are also trained to be called off at any point of the hunt so they do not kill indiscriminantly. As for my mentality of an idiot - probably, for rising to this bait and answering your post! But hey ho, what you wrote was verging on libel.

I think Fifi has plans for that car that involves no clothes and her hens!

I wonder if it will come out west and buy some eggs (shameless plug!). I am on Google Earth riding my horse (very very very small pic, but definitely me!).
