Maybe you've seen him speeding under the Skye bridge with the wind in his yacht's sails, maybe he's rushed to your side in a medical emergency, or maybe you've caught him enjoying a famous post lunch nap... this week's interesting person will have touched the lives of many in Skye and Lochalsh... he's Balmacara's Alan Main!

Out tomorrow in our fabulous wee (and not so wee!) shops and online at whfp.com
