Viking invasion!

Tuesday 31/01/12

Shetland's fire festival got off to a flying start on Tuesday morning when the Toll Clock Shopping Centre was invaded by over 70 rowdy vikings from the Lerwick Jarl Squad. Led by Jarl David Nicolson, the invasion took place at 08:30 marching into the car park led by the Lerwick Pipe Band, they then trooped into the centre much to the delight of our customers, (many of whom were tucking into their breakfast at the Skipidock and the Olive Tree cafes!) 

In good spirits, the Jarl Squad treated all the spectators to a couple of raucus songs before presenting George Sutherland, the centre's managing director, with a plaque thanking him for his support of Up Helly Aa through the years. After a quick refreshment stop the vikings mustered outside the Minimarket where they were met by the galley, the pipe band and the brass band before they marched over to the British Legion for the second stop of their action-packed day.

A full day and night awaits the Jarl squad with obligations around Lerwick followed by the galley burning at night and visitations to the local halls. We're sure it's going to be a memorable day for everyone involved.  We look forward to welcoming the Jarl squad back again next year for our annual invasion!

Bolts Online

Bolts have launched their own website! www.boltsonline.co.uk

Bolts manage and operate various shops within the Toll Clock Shopping Centre, including Bolts Electrical, Toll Clock Paint Shop, Toll Clock Toys, Bolts Minimarket and Bolts Homecomforts. From toys to electrical goods, paint and homewares, Bolts have been retailing to the Shetland public for over 50 years and they feel it's now time to take their goods global by launching their own website.

By launching their own website they have effectively given customers the opportunity to see a huge selection of their products under one roof from the comfort of their own homes. If you live in Shetland you can avoid postage costs by opting to pay and collect in store, however the staff at Bolts are happy to arrange delivery, or will post out goods usually on the same day as orders are made.

If you buy a lot of goods through Amazon or Ebay you may be aware of Boltsonline.co.uk as they have been successfully selling goods through these websites for quite a while. A powerseller on ebay and 95% positive feedback on amazon is recognition of Bolts' efforts to provide outstanding customer service and a quick service for their customers. Due to the success of Bolts selling through these websites the staff at Bolts now feel the time is right to launch their own website and they hope you enjoy your online shopping experience at Boltsonline.co.uk

The staff at bolts are keen to point out that if you don't see what you are looking for on their website you should try giving them a call as they probably have what you are looking for in stock, it is just impossible for them to list everything in their stores online!
