We do have fun in da north - du kens

It has been brough to the attention of Muckle Ossa that some folk dinna think anyone in da frozen north ever has any fun and that theres little to occupy oor time apart from diggin up mud to burn on da fire and saaaaaalting faaaaash an assorted lumps of dead sheep.

Well now den boy, boy, boy, boy, girl, boy, boy, girl, girl, boy, boy, whaaaaaas yon ower yonder, Jaaaaaaaahn Jaaaaahnsen Repaaaaaaaarting Shetland, I can honestly say its not at all true...

And to prove it we have sourced (at no expense whatsoever) this remarkeable pre-olympic record attempt training video for your delectation and delight. It proves, beyond a shoadow of a doubt that northmen are indeed tough & worthy of being called Vikings, and maybe just a little bit damp around da edges.
