In the 50s and 60s Rothesay was the dream place for us city kids.Freedom to explore and enjoy the magic of the comings and goings of the steamers at the pier.A highlight has to be the trip round Bute with my sister and cousins and my grandmother.
The coaches had a magical air to them.A unique experience, with a stop at Kingarth for refreshments.Lemonade for us,tea for Granny.Then back to Rothesay with commentary from the driver.Back in time to meet mums and dads fresh from the Black Bull,then a chippy from Zavaroni before the bus to our holiday home in Ballochgoy.It doesnt come much better.Im 53 now and it seems like,well, if you've ever been doon the watter you know what I mean.
Regards to all Alex.
