Despite the obvious scarcity of customers – the pub serves a community of around 115 – the Old Forge is an attractive business proposition, with six-figure profits, according to agents. The pub and restaurant is on the main sailing route to Skye, the Outer Hebrides and the Small Isles and attracts yachtsmen, hillwalkers and tourists throughout the year.

Thank you Lothianlad - looks like we're kind of on a par at the minute, but at least I've had the pleasure of a fantastic summer here - unlike my parents back home who have just went out and bought a dinghy - just in case lol :D

UGGGGG jetlag... so going out and getting pissed up just delayed the inevitable then :p

Enjoy Scotland, one of my fave places is the Isle of Skye - so pretty! and weirdly enough the Southern end of The Big Island Hawaii reminded me of it, think its because I saw sheep :lol:
