sleeping along side the ferry port,we were up early,but kellie very nearly missed the ferry as she dorddled down the slip,the ferry started to lift its bow with her still at the top.lucky the capitain spotted her and dropped it again.they were on amber alert because of the weather

arran should have been such a pleasure,in reality it was horrid,rained heavy all the way over to brodrick


what a shame we didn't enjoy arran,we had a lovely breakfast at the pavillion in lochranza,the climb over to corrie was one hell of a climb,on top three cyclist who regularey do arran as a training route passed their simpathy at missing a beautifull island due to the rain.but still found the heart to donate £15 between them to our bucket.lunch was at the golf club before heading down to a waiting boat at brodick,we headed for the cafeteria once on board.as we arrived at ardrossan the weather was showing no sign of improving so we opted for a b&b.finding a self service b&b in irvine,showered,washed and dried our clothes,pub for a couple of pints then a take away for supper
