No decision is so fine as to not bind us to its consequences.
No consequence is so unexpected as to absolve us of our decisions.

Next Question:
The village 'Tjørnuvík' has a temporary permit to kill whales (pilot whales). What date was this permit issued and what does Tjørnuvík belong to (according to whaling)?

Anyways, I will give to you, since you already did the tough part.
It belongs to the authority of 'Sundini' which is most of northern Eysturoy, but not Streymoy.
Go ahead and post a new question, Norlander!
