Didn't quite know where to put this so hope this is okay.
I had a really surreal conversation today in Marks & Spencers. I started chatting to the woman on the next table in the coffee place. She lived in Paisley and, as a child, went to Arran every second year and Islay every other on her holidays. She reminded me of so many things from my own childhood holidays and we worked out we were on Kilnaughton Bay as children on the same day (due to an 'incident' that took place). Anyway, she said that the highlight of her Arran holiday was taking the Duchess of Hamilton for the day to Campbeltown and that every time she arrived, a piper would be playing on the quay. I can remember this from my own trips there but all I can recall is a 'big ship' coming in and indeed the aforesaid piper standing on the quay. I can also recall Woolworths being bursting at the seams shortly after the holidaymakers arrived!
