^^ No, it wouldn't have been less ... it's the normal payout

^^^ Not his fault ..Please!! The man was totally incompetent/unsuitable ! His payout was the norm for any chief ex that "moves on" All this excrement about "who leaked what to who" is just treading water! the sooner our council admit he should never have been given the job in the first place, the quicker we can move on!

They could cut a bit off the maintenance budget by using the same road signs. They have specially made road signs for the resurfacing work at the Clickimin roundabout! For 1 weeks use! Total waste of money !!

You could try the Lerwick Police station on 692110 they should be able to tell you.

^^ only 20 years .. just a baby

^^ lol Men ! .. I rest my case

^^^ I passed first time .. 7 weeks after my 17th birthday But, Hubby recons the better drivers pass second time I must admit .. I'm so glad I didn't have the theory test to worry about.

I thought it was only grey seals they could shoot?

I do think they are getting more vicious, I know the birds are more protective at nesting time, but our cat can't go outside now without being dive bombed! Another neighbour witnessed a gull swooping down and eating a fledgling starling? surely this isn't normal behaviour?

Lol already tried the asking nicely. Hubby has now tactfully suggested that they might be getting the "clean up" bill, so fingers crossed that works

The building on the pier is a sewage pumping station?

^^ I think you might find the terms and conditions of this site wont allow Brian to answer that one.

^^ Nice idea Longdog .. but they don't have a car

Thanks Shetlandpeat .. I was afraid that was the case

Why?....why?....why? I agree totally .. but I have a neighbour who feeds them daily If only the gulls would crap on their windows and persecute their cats

I thought you could be fined for feeding the gulls? but I can't seem to find any info on it.. Anyone know ?

^^ Everyone I've talked to has been surprised that "Titanic" was used. Personally, I would have gone with something more local. But as you say each to their own.

Not at all ... just stating my surprise that they have chosen the theme of a "sinking ship" as their advert.

The new bill board for the Mareel isn't very optimistic ... now showing ... TITANIC

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8569237.stm Mr Wills had NOTHING to do with the amount of "pay off" that Mr Clark recieved, he got the average that is paid out to Chief Executives that cant do their jobs

Where has this personal vendetta crap come from ?? The ex chief executive was unsuitable for the job !! he didn't have a clue about employment law, or working in the public sector. The money he was awarded was scandalous! but it had nothing to do with Mr Wills .. pay-offs are the norm for these "big wigs" I would far rather have someone who will shout and scream when they think something is wrong, rather than yes men/women who are silenced by threats from above !!

The workers on the barge have all been here for at least a month already, so I don't think there will be a massive change in the toon.

A blast from the past

Hopefully it will ease off now, thanks to our vigilant police force .. http://www.shetland-news.co.uk/2010/June/news/Man%20held%20over%20attempted%20break%20ins.htm
