    Excellent wee video, thanx. I lived there as a wee boy in it's heyday...left in 1969. I remember The Fifth Dimension, Helter Skelter, Beach Pavillion, Central Cafe, Minerva Cafe, Brown's Amusements and their temporary one at the harbour, Lawrence's Amusements (still there), Mayfair Amusements, The boating pond and paddling pool, the putting green, the Byne Hill and Horse Rocks...memories !!!

      Exactly. Looking for an Oscar in the "Best dramatised propaganda" category.

    At least they got rid of most of the gigantic harbour car park where the new leisure centre stands, it opens next month😍😍😍😍- Quite a large building too! And there is now better, more frequent transport and there are many community events during the summer, etc. Its finally getting better.

    Its not just Girvan. Its all over. As for tourists ; we dont get the summers we used to and its cheaper to go abroad. SHOPS. Rates are high for such a small Town and most people shop online. FISHING. There is no money in that game now . As for the Council, they really dont give a fuck.

    So sad spent the best holidays ever when I was about 19 in Girvan. Went back for about four years in a row. Very happy memories, it should be brought back to life, if we can dump the WM Government maybe it can be.
