  1. Hi Mal Thanks for the offer Haven't got one yet but I don't think your garage would have enough headroom. will check it out though when/if we do get one. Cheers Jim
  2. I did think of doing that but I live practically on the beach and that is where the van would be parked . So was thinking more along the lines of protecting the body work and just going and taking the van out of storage once every week or so weather permitting for a drive.
  3. Thanks for the info I will see if I can find out any more about it. :0
  4. Hi We are thinking of purchasing a campervan that we would like to keep under cover when not in use. Doe's anyone know who doe's this type of storage and what sort of price they charge. Preferably in North Mavine but anywhere considered. Cheers Jim
  5. Thanks for the info
  6. Hi Can anyone tell me who sells peat. I cant remember who I bought my last load from. Cheers
  7. I posted an ad last night looking for a cement mixer. I got a response from a member mingtieh saying they had one for sale and to contact them. After a few exchange emails it turns out they are not in Shetland but say they are a company from Hayling Island looking at the user name though they are either in China or it is a con or both. Thought I would give you all a heads up in case they respond to anyone elses ads. By the way anyone selling a cement mixer let me know

  9. Billy got my vote. Hopefully he will fight and stand for all of us. At least he will not just follow some party line.
  10. Got ours today pin and card in same post
  11. It must have been a blip on the site yesterday as it let me book the flights this morning.
  12. Just tried booking a flight for June but it wont let me book a date later than the end of March. So doesn't look like anything has been sorted out yet
  13. Same here spent ages playing it on the past versions. Just something doesn't seem to click for me on fm11 the longest I played a game for was less than 2 seasons.
  14. I have played fm for a few years but I just cant seem to find any enjoyment in this release. I have downloaded the latest patch 11.3 in the hope I would find it more interesting I played it for about 20mins before I got bored and turned it off again. This is just my opinion though you might enjoy it.
  15. What is the expiry date on them.
  16. My wife realised that her air discount scheme card expired at the end of this month. So she phoned the number on the card to renew it. She was told that every ones card expired at the end of this month and that they didn't know if the scheme was to be continued. I was wondering has anyone else has heard anything about this.

  19. Can some one please tell me who does ear piercing in Lerwick. Thanks Bev (***Mod Edit - Moved to Consumer Advice & Resources***)
  20. I used to pay approx £80 a month by direct debit to the Hydro and they said I wasn't paying enough and wanted to put the amount up. I checked a few suppliers and decided to switch to EDF who set up my direct debit based on the useage readings from my Hydro bill and they said it would be £55 a month £25+ a month less than Hydro. I have recently received a letter from EDF saying I had been paying to much at £55 a month and was a few months in credit. So I would look at different suppliers and change from Hydro as soon as you can Paul.
  21. You could also phone ACAS they will be able to give you some advice as well.
  22. Got another of the calls yesterday. So just put the phone next to my computer speaker and let them listen to some pink floyd full blast lol
  23. I get these calls every few weeks. I just tell them I dont have a computer or laptop they soon hang up
