Let's visit the Ardrossan Highland Games.
Ardrossan is a sea port on the Firth of Clyde. From my house it was 116 mile drive each way to the games ground. I had not been to these games before and I wanted to distribute some leaflets for next week's Hawick games.
As the games venue is on the edge of Cunningham country I wore my Lady Chrystel boxpleat in Weathered Hunting Cunningham.
Chieftain of the Games Cecilia Templeton and Chairman Alan Pettigrew
