The abiding influence of the Vikings, who arrived in Shetland just over 1000 years ago, is celebrated on the last Tuesday of January every year, by the largest fire festival in Europe - "Up Helly Aa".
After a torch-light procession of up to a thousand "guizers" through the streets of Lerwick a full-size replica Viking longship is ceremonially burned. The "guizers" and onlookers then repair to local halls for a night of revelry, dancing and partying.

Get the Heulwen mug.Hely is a Gujarati word for lots and lots of rain/ a person who is born in the middle of a California drought in a rainstorm. A Hely is one who is born to make people believe in love. A girl who is short and sweet but just a little feisty. One you only meet once in a lifetime, one you have to hang onto and never let go. A Hely is a storm of a person, like her namesake, her highs will keep you soaring and her lows will make you question all of humanity because why would anyone wrong her. One who has been through hell and back with a smile on her face and will uplift you with just a warm glance.

Get the Hellyard mug.Sounds like HELEN. Nevaeh is HEAVEN spelled backwards. When said together you get HELL N HEAVEN. Meaning little bit of both. Piss her off you will get hell from heaven . To be around her is like residing with an angel who can sing so beautifully and she can play a guitar lick that puts all others to shame. An awesome person, no doubt. One who inspires the world and new world's to come. Within her, peace will be created for all beings to share. Hell-n-heaven. The best of both. On Earth.
My daughter is a little piece of Helyn Heaven and I couldn't ask for anyone better, because there isn't.
