I agree, I've missed the Portlands! Good luck to the new guys
Who has taken it over? Wish them luck, it's a shame the hotel closed!

Apparently Mr Bowles who opened the thread is one of the "two great local men " now running the Portlands !
All best to the new folk at the Portland Arms.
I've driven through Lybster on a few occasions recently and it was so sad to see the hotel closed up and abandoned.
Looking forward to visiting it again now though....
Think the opening post is a bitty cheeky if indeed he is one of the 'great local men'.
Would have been more impressed if it had been put in the business section with a bitty more honesty and openess.
Some people are like Slinkies. They're really good for nothing. But they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
Nothing wrong with a bit of self-promotion!
No there isnt, so long as you say its self promotion.

Anyone know what time Tesco opens?
Not good to see a well known local hotel closed so best wishes for the future.
and what is wrong with them looking for cheap TV's? they are starting out in business and probubly have a budget to work to, give them a year to settle in and they may buy new, problem with some people is that they just look to find faults with everything, i wish them all the best for giving it a go!
good luck nice place glad someone is giving it a go just at the right time i would say
Nope. Nothing to do with me.
Local businesses, especially new starts, need to be encouraged.
What's the problem if they enjoy a few days of "glory" on the main forum before being removed to the Business Section? That was the case with another new business a few weeks ago with the new garden centre/cafe at Lochshell.
With the current difficult economic climate, especially in Caithness, should we not be supporting local, enterprising initiatives instead of "raining on their parade"?
I'd rather read a post with some hope for the future of Caithness and potential business than some of the other stuff I've read recently.
Thanks Moira.
I'll admit I had to read it twice before it made any sense at all lol!
