I Visited The UK's Most Remote Inhabited Island | Fair Isle

[@ruthaisling]

It was so wonderful to finally visit Fair Isle, the most remote inhabited island in the UK and a place I've wanted to visit for years. The welcoming locals made my time on the island unforgettable!

I had a Fair Isle sweater when I was a kid. Not sure if it actually came from there or not, but it was interesting to see the island. Off the beaten path videos are the best. :)

[@KennethMillstein]

Hello Ruth, I hope you have the time to read my entire comment. Your videos bring me back to my favorite country. It wasn't always my favorite; however, beginning in June 1994, Scotland took first place in my heart. I arrived by train in Waverly Station after taking five trains and one ferry from Munich, Germany, where I had been visiting a very special (female) friend for one week. Several people asked me why I was traveling to Scotland, and at that time, my only best answer was that it made perfect sense to me because I loved Single Malt Whisky. On my second day in Edinburgh, I stopped into a beautiful pub named the "Guildford Arms" that is near the famous "Balmoral Hotel" on Princess Street. I walked in at about 5:00 pm, and I took a table with my favorite whisky called Lagavulin. Since I liked to save photos of myself (in 1994, the advent of our phones of today) had not yet been available I asked a fellow who had stopped in the pub along with one of his best friends for a pint or two before heading home. After taking the photo I invited both gentlemen to join me at my table and since neither of them we're friends with an American (especially one from New York City) we chatted until the pubs closing time (11:00pm) and to make an even longer story shorter the three of us became wonderful friends until 2007, when Dougie passed away his late fifties and the other fellow of the same age had died in 2001. During the years that proceeded their loss to me they both visited me seperatly in New York City having stayed in my apartment that I gave to them. Dougie, allowed me to stay in his house in Edinburgh several times. During the intervening years, I visited your country about seven or eight times having seen so much of it including Ornay and the Shetland Islands. Of course I visited Isla so I could see the home distillery of Lagavulin (16) Year Old Single Malt Whisky. Ruth, you along with Steve Marsh have become so very important to me as you both trigger so many special memories of my time having traveled East, West, North, and South loving Scotland and the wonderful people who are the citizens of Scotland. All of this from having asked a stranger in 1994. I'm now 77 years old and I hope to visit Scotland one more time before I visit with Dougie and Alex above. If you read this entire message allow me to thank you and please continue to show off your wonderful country. Kenneth Millstein PS, My lady friend who I visited in Munich also passed away at an early age because she smoked much to much.

[@nbrah26]

What an incredible video, thank you for taking us along. The people of Fair Isle are so kind and I love their enthusiasm about where they live.

Thank you for your wonderful video, I have seen almost all of your videos and this was in my top 2 favourites. So enjoyable , taking me outside of my city flat and enjoying the solitude and beauty of open spaces and slower pace of life through your great camera work and the experiences of living there shared by the locals.

Lovely to see and learn more about Fair Isle. I love how you are featuring locals in your videos and taking the Ranger walks. It's so interesting to learn more about life in the Scottish islands from the people who live there. Not an easy life I'm sure, even in our modern times. And I have to say, that Fair Isle throw blanket was absolutely INCREDIBLE. A stunning work of art, really.

A wee tip to combat sea sickness. Wedge your body against the ship's structure. In other words, you roll with the ship as opposed to your body constantly trying to fight for a stable platform.

The first (and only time) I went on the Good Shepherd was when I was 4 years old and I can still remember it well, by far the roughest sea journey I've ever experienced. However this experience was worth it because I think that is how I got my sea legs and thankfully never been sea sick to this day! I know others are not so lucky unfortunately, I saw your Amsterdam - Newcastle trip... Amazing video, always love seeing Shetland being filmed and represented so wonderfully.

Hi Ruth, I so enjoy your adventures and want to let you know about our Island of Newfoundland in Canada. So very similar to Shetland and Isle of Skye. It’s as if in the ice age a large chunk of Scotland broke off and floated west to North America! We are so fortunate to enjoy Puffins and Gannets and sea birds. They are delightful bids and are plentiful in places on our North Coast in Bonavista, Elliston and Trinity as well as St. John’s area. The majestic cliffs are everywhere on Newfoundland and on the south coast of our island you can visit Cape St Mary’s Bird Sanctuary. I must say that I hope to visit Shetland and Fair Isle, they are at the very top of my bucket list. Thanks so much for sharing your adventures!

[@ruthaisling]

Wow that sounds amazing! I spent six months living in Guelph but never made it over to that part of Canada. Maybe someday!

No wonder I’m drawn to the rocky shores and the ocean!! Keep up the great work!!! 👏

As someone who knits, Fair Isle is complicated and time consuming. But very lovely. Yes, I can't see how hand-knitted would be commercially viable anymore. But the machine knitted is just as lovely and more affordable. So good they can still share their lovely crafting. And the puffins are adorable. PS Do you know why they had those silly Porgs in Star Wars? The Irish island they filmed those scenes on had so many puffins and the birds would not leave the film makers alone. So they gave up and just covered them up with Porgs. So every porg is really a puffin stealing a scene.

A beautifully crafted video of this remote yet vibrant island. Having worked on the ferries to Shetland for about 13 years, it brought back many memories, as did the Steve Marsh visit to Foula. Over those years the ferries used to take in a passing of Fair Isle on the Friday southbound sailing and I well remember the Sheep Rock, the inlet where the Armada ship met its' fate and seeing the south lighthouse as we sailed towards Orkney. South of Sumbrugh the sea is know as Da Roost and I've recollection of its' might in the winter and we once steamed for hours heading due west into the weather because of the sea state. In all my time travelling there I only saw a fleeting flyby of puffins (aka Tammy Nories) and I too was dive bombed by Arctic Terns but that was on Orkney. Thanks so much for recording your interesting travels.

A great video of a fantastic place so peaceful. A tip for seasickness, I think you can buy bands to go around your wrists which exert pressure on points just below your wrist, I have know these to work. Or just find two small pebbles and put them inside your cuffs on your jumper at the same pressure points, this also works, don't know why, but it does.

[@Graham19951]

When I was on the local lifeboat, we used to give people dry biscuits for sea sickness. I think it just sort of gums up the works a bit. My partner also suffers badly and those sea bands seem to help her. Some people suffer badly, I knew a local trawler skipper who never beat it and suffered so bad he had to give up the sea.
