*Where am I today on the Isle of Arran? The answer's at the end of this video! ...but can you guess where before I tell you? Towards the end of the video is a clip of an oystercatcher buzzing me as I tried to walk away from it's nest at the beach. This video is for Sam Ridley from Menstrie in Clachmannanshire as he's just gone home after a lovely visit and won't be back on the island until Autu...

    Not the Distillery David. That is the new Lochranza village Hall. Born and bred in Lochranza. Used to be packed in the summer early and mid sixties with the Steamers coming in every day from Glasgow. The little ferry started in 1972 or 1973. My Father was the Piermaster for about 11 years. And he owned the Arran paper round business. Love your videos. Brings me back so many memories for me. I reckon I have been around the island roughly 750 times!

    I'm no good at birds but I got the reaction from oyster catchers as they were nested on the beach and wanted me away from their eggs. In Tighnabruaich the birds were at see and I nearly stood on the eggs they were so well disguised. Lived just outside Tighnabruaich for nearly a year and not managed to get over yet but it's on the list of places I visit xx

    I was camping there for a few days this past week - I left on Wednesday morning. Those three cows and two calves wandered past my tent twice a day and were no problem - in past years I've been there when there's been about a dozen cows with their calves and a bull the size of a garden shed.

    Hey Dave. Now that they’ve cleaned up Arrans beaches, maybe the next step is to add some artificial reefs. Besides adding an aquatic habitat, they should channel all those sloppy waves into something more coherent and surfable on longboards. Drumadoon looks surfable when it’s kickin off. Ps. How’s your tribute band getting along? ua-cam.com/video/sptQj1MPIwg/v-deo.htmlsi=MOgy7b4ju5mW0gQp Next stop, the PHT😂😂😂 Atb, sport.

    The last time my wife and I were on The Waverley was about seven or so years ago. It was a short trip from Lochranza down to the southern tip of Arran on a lovely afternoon. Just as Waverley was about to turn about for the return leg a Spitfire of all things roared across heading in the direction of the mainland. Seeing us below it banked and circled us several times dipping its wings in salute. The grand old lady returned the acknowledgment with blasts on her horn while we passengers waved and shouted. It was truly a memorable occasion.
