We went to the Leisure Centre to meet the Jarl Squad, This weekend it was Cullivoe Up Helly Aa. The Jarl’s Squad process through Cullivoe carrying torches which they throw into the Jarl’s galley which then burns.

I enjoyed watching your Vimeo. The squad had some very fine beards! I live in a village that had vikings living here many years ago and before them the Romans. What interesting ancestors we have.
Ate most people native Shetlanders, or do you still get people moving there from the mainland?
