Letters / Breakfast wouldn’t be the same

Congratulations to Ian Anderson, who has been recognised as a pioneer in UK commercial radio.

At times it can’t have been the easiest way to earn a living, but Ian and Inga would be sorely missed if they weren’t there – they’re part of the Shetland way of life, and my breakfast isn’t the same if I’m not tuned in.

They’ve also moved with the times, and their SIBC app (written by their son) is a nice piece of work – slick, and does what it says on the tin.

Congratulations as well to Inga on presenting the SIBC news on Thursday morning in a most pleasant fashion.
