Ahem....

And plenty whose families have settled in nicely over the years and don't expect Shetland to revolve around them.

You're not one of those 'little Shetlander' types who blame everything that's SoothMooth for all their woes, are you?:thumb

Most of our woes are caused by the clowns that run the place, but its been that way for years. Grants for family and fancy bits who then go bust and start again.I'm not anti incomers, only those who come here and don't integrate
and try and change the way of life,if you ride a bike u must be ok.
:cool

Hit the nail on the head, I reckon.:thumb2
 
Does it really matter?

You'll still have a load of gravy-train riding, shiney-arsed, free- loaders telling you what to do.
Is the accent with which they speak that important?

:beerjug:
 
I stand to be corrected but........


In the volume stakes most of the rigs off England are small and unmanned with the gas being producted on a steady and steep decine. Thus the increase in wholesale prices and the increased import from overseas.

Yes there maybe less rigs north but they are large production units drawing far larger volume and quality. With the North sea a hostile enviroment the skills base and service support in UK with the Eastcoast of Scotland being a world epicentre this will keep production going long enough.

I am sure Andy T and the others in the industry can elabourate.

What the man said.
And don't get confused about rigs. Rigs explore and exploit then platforms, FPSO's etc then produce the goods, many platforms with a drilling facility built in. So rig counts only go so far to explaining activity.
And for oil companies and oil service companies whilst North Sea activity has reduced in certain areas, it has, largely, been replaced by overseas work for North East based companies. Aberdeen (area) is a pretty healthy work place these days - thank fukc :aidan
 
5 pages and it seems like only those south of the wall want to remain in a union :rolleyes:GIRFUY
 
Much as I like Scotland (and my sister married someone from Scotland) it is a place that most English don't give a second thought to. That said, I would vote for an independant England, free of the burden of subsidising the Scots and pissing their third rate banks and politicians back to Scotland and out of England.

Oh, and on a different subject while I am here: where and when is the best time for driving up this winter and seeing the Northern Lights?

Therein lies the problem. Who asked what was to be gained from Independence.....? :rolleyes:

I did, for England :D

Edit and more importantly, what about the Northern Lights?

the perfect example right on cue, everything that is wrong with you're compatriots in one post, it's not the workshy or immigrants that have spoiled your country. its precisely these backward views :blagblah
 
Why are you typing bollox? Nothing to say or just pished?

Your obvious lack of comprehension does not mean that I'm typing "bollox".

If you'd care to specify which bit of my response to your Little Englander's post you don't understand, I can, if necessary spell it out at in a manner that's consistent with your level of understanding.

HTH

Just the standard view here in Englandshire really. Scotland is very important to Scottish people, which is what you would expect but not very important to English people. Except for the banks and politicians who are generally fecking useless. Anyway, more importantly, advice on where and when to see the Northern Lights?

Can't be fecked with cryptic tonight. So don't bother.
 
A simple "thank you" would suffice.

That will be pished then. Goodnight, I'll call by earlier next time and I might get some sense. Or maybe not. Northern Lights?
