  1. I've had sofas delivered so reckon they could do a freezer. Can't help with the recycling question though!
  2. What Shetlandcars said. I've just checked and apparently you can also travel free on the service ferry if your ticket is from after 6pm the previous day.
  3. You must have been in a commercial vehicle rather than a car. Cars are £13.30, and down to £8.70 with a 10 journey ticket. Either that or there were two other adults in the car. Afaiaa, travel on the unst ferry is free if you travel on the yell ferry on the same day (or the other way round perhaps), so the cost wouldn't double.
  4. Does anyone know where liquid nitrogen can be sourced locally?
  5. 'Something I've observed even this year is passengers returning to their ship as early as 12.30am and whatever the reason it doesn't look good' Yeah, at that time of night they could at least have the decency to wait till the pubs close
  6. Property, I clearly misunderstood.
  7. Shetlandcars, indeed. Which is why they are offering both. Which is why I mentored both. And that's 2019. A long way short of the ten years suggested by crashbox.
  8. Bigmouth, I know exactly which baker you are talking about. They used to label the ingredients saying it was chocolate. It wasn't. They did change it once it was pointed out, but it should not have had to be pointed out. I tend to avoid their products nowadays as a result.
  9. I don't have the time to construct a suitable reply. I agree with some of what you say. If someone was indeed told that rape only happens to women, that is shocking and demonstrates total ignorance. I think there are valid reasons why fgm is seen as a more serious issue than circumcision (which in some cases is a medical necessity). But I agree that circumcision should be controlled too. I thought that women could now serve on the front line, but I may be wrong on that. Women's Aid was started by women, for women. No reason why men can't do the same, I'm sure they would get a lot of support. Both men and women face inequalities. Both sides can be guilty of being 'anti' the other. Wouldn't it be good if, instead of making it 'us and them' it was just all 'us' looking for a fairer world? I don't have the time to construct a suitable reply. I agree with some of what you say.

  10. Bigmouth are you assuming it is all male violence towards women? Why is that?
  11. Personally I don't think 134 sounds high. Sadly. It's around the figure I'd expect. But 1 is 1 too many.
  12. I'm not missing the negative side at all. I didn't refer to it, but I didn't need to, as you had already focused on that to the exclusion of the positive side. I'm merely restoring balance.
  13. I think it's a good thing that people can report suspected violence and abuse without corroboration. If there is nothing going on then the people concerned have nothing to worry about. If there is something going on then hopefully the right support and help will be forthcoming. Bigmouth, is interesting that you pose the question yet do not answer it yourself. So what will you do?
  14. This thread might shed some light on why some people prefer to avoid giving their money to him https://www.shetlink.com/index.php?/topic/419-anyone-boycotting-oslasmax/#
