timber needs painting every couple of years, you just have o look at the "sail" on the museum to see how weathered it is and painting a building the size of mareel would cost a lot of money

if you are a private individual you can dump it in a skip if you wanted to but if you got a contract in to do the work then they would have to follow all the legislation double bagging, masks and suits, properly dumping it etc

Driving whilst using mobile phones
Hobbiniho replied to lambie's topic in Anything & Everything Else
has anybody that has seen someone using a mobile phone whilst driving reported them to the police? -
its a relatively easy job to remove a chimney and make good a roof, dependant on the size it can be done in a day with two men, im sure most builders would be able to give you a quote, what kind of slates/ tiles do you have?

Thanks for that Hobbiniho. How did you arrange the transport, was it through Arnold Clark direct? yeh the branch that i bought the car from sorted it all out for me they could ahve delivered it to the boat for me but i wanted a day in aberdeen
-
i bought a car from arnold clark in glasgow and they delivered it to aberdeen for me to pick up think it was about £100 so from london would be considerably more

off the top of my head i can think of several cars that offer better mpg than your list. vw polo bluemotion 80.7mpg combined http://www.testdriven.co.uk/vw-polo-bluemotion-available-now-with-80-7-mpg-91-gkm-co2/ seat ibiza ecomotive 76.3mpg combined http://www.autotrader.co.uk/articles/2009/03/cars/seat/ibiza/seat-ibiza-ecomotive-car-review vw golf bluemotion 74.3mpg combined http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/Drives/Search-Results/First-drives/VW-Golf-Bluemotion-16-TDI-2010-CAR-review-/ also euro n cap ratings for the seat and the c1 http://www.euroncap.com/tests/seat_ibiza_2008/324.aspx http://www.euroncap.com/tests/citroen_c1_2005/218.aspx

My indication of 999.9 mpg proves what? That if you're travelling down a steep hill and not needing to accelerate, your car is merely ticking over and so using very little fuel?no if you are travelling down a hill in gear and not touching the accelerator if you have a modern car then you wil use absolutely no fuel at all hence why your mpg figure maxes out, on my leon the gauge just goes blank

@kavi ugl i dont completely agree with that statement, the vast majority of houses built in shetland recently have been timber clad and many have been painted in bright colours (hjaltland housing association) but i do concede that most are of a fairly traditional design but they are by no means drab grey boxes. as for the erlund houses they are lovely looking houses but they are not to everyones taste
-
please explain how scandinavian houses are light years ahead of whats being built in shetland???
-
^^^ i agree the scalloway bc is good compared to the pubs in lerwick

Road condition reports - Snow, Rain, Fog, etc
Hobbiniho replied to khitajrah's topic in Anything & Everything Else
I think you will find that there was no other option due to the drift that was about 18inch deep and quarter of a mile long, would love to see you dig through that one with a shovel. Police advice was to go out at midnight in the horrendous conditions and dig the car out which i think is absolutely disgracefull. The message this morning was not to travel until the gritters had cleared the road at 9am, when i travelled to work at just before 8 the main roads were clear and the car had been moved as we had an arrangement with the gritter men first thing this morning to have the car dug out and left across the road from the graveyard
