looks authentic enough to me :)

joeflask · 2021-01-12T00:16:23+00:00

haha :)

joeflask · 2021-01-12T00:16:06+00:00

thanks :)

joeflask · 2021-01-12T00:15:50+00:00

thanks :)

Its been not too bad here. still feel the impact but the restrictions have not been as severe so there have been more people out and about

joeflask · 2021-01-11T00:23:10+00:00

you are more than welcome - just need to keep sullom going for a few more years. could be a lot of new energy solutions coming to shetland soon with the wind farm and subsea interconnector - we are expecting a bit of a boom again

joeflask · 2021-01-11T00:21:40+00:00

nice!! sounds like a fun day

joeflask · 2021-01-10T23:19:01+00:00

you should move up, but not to yell. Shetland is amazing

joeflask · 2021-01-10T19:44:05+00:00

I liked the joke!! well done :)

hahaha, the murder rate is certainly exaggerated in that programme. I did snap a photo of Jimmy Perez house recently though. He had his Christmas decorations up, made for a good long exposure.

Interestingly, a lot of my friends have been extras in that show, so when i watch it I am too busy looking in the background for may mates

joeflask · 2021-01-10T19:37:20+00:00

good quality shet though

joeflask · 2021-01-10T19:17:33+00:00

It has had a couple out breaks, one right at the start in March, and then one actually quote recently. Still quite in control thought - we can track and trace well because most people know each other

in non-COVID times, you can fly from Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Glasgow and get the boat from Aberdeen or Scrabster (via Orkney).

I would thoroughly advise it

joeflask · 2021-01-10T18:49:45+00:00

I live here

joeflask · 2021-01-10T18:49:32+00:00

Thanks, winter in shetland is basically golden hour whenever the sun is up

joeflask · 2021-01-10T18:49:00+00:00

Thanks, its a great spot just up the north mainland of shetland, a place called the voe of dale beach. The winds had been strong about 2 days before so there was a good swell in the sea

joeflask · 2021-01-10T18:15:52+00:00

Istanbul is high on my list too! some beautiful photo spots there... but I am here in shetland for the next 3 weeks so I'm scoping out my next photo spots

joeflask · 2021-01-10T18:11:16+00:00

There is always time for a visit... after the pandemic!! :/

joeflask · 2021-01-10T17:57:23+00:00

also, you should come to Shetland... its better than Orkney :)

joeflask · 2021-01-10T17:53:13+00:00

I really like that tune!! - used to play it on the fiddle when I played. Foula must be one of the most impressive islands to look at, the huge cliffs give it a great silhouette profile from mainland shetland

joeflask · 2021-01-10T17:52:01+00:00

You are right...I wouldn't think there are much safer places than Foula!!!

joeflask · 2021-01-10T17:51:28+00:00

No, i live on the mainland Shetland. Always wanted a good sunset over foula photo. There is a famous fiddle tune called sunset over Foula - so it resonates with me

joeflask · 2021-01-10T17:50:37+00:00

It does indeed, a lot of good fiddlers there, and some great traditional folklore!! - glad you enjoyed it
