BigMouth Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Just for BigMouth - a wry view of Kneebone by a resident..http://www.northmavine.com/nibon.htm Yeah, of course north is best!! Very good and well worth a read. I rarely go there now that I am transport-less. It's funny that I always had a guilty feeling going there as though I was intruding on someone's peace. When I parked the then car it felt like I was spoiling the landscape. It is the only place in Shetland that I really yearn to live. I keep doing the lottery and hope that one day I will be able to turn up on the doorstep of one of the houses with a car boot full of money and ask the residents to sell it to me.

When I parked the then car it felt like I was spoiling the landscape.I know exactly what you mean. It has an atmosphere of its own. Always reminds me of when I was shipwrecked on the island there too. Arrr Jim lad, there lies another tale.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMouth Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Ironically I got all 6 numbers on the lottery this weekend. The residents of Nibon have nothing to fear though as they were on two different lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

engineer21 Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Norwick beach in unst is pretty special on a nice summers day esp if u get a little surf!! Too be fair shetland has many many nice places and they all look great on sunny days but its just the lack of sunny days!! or on very windy days the coastline too me is always spectacular!
