I'm going to have to write a story book at some point in my life about Westies coming to the island.
Alison PageGUEST
And that's where, without trying to plug my books, but they see all of these, that's where I got the idea of, for them coming to the Westy Fest for a Highland Games on the island.
Alison PageGUEST
All these Westys were coming from all over.
Alex GriffinHOST
Oh,
Alex GriffinHOST
So there was ferries full of Westies going to the Isle of Arran.
Alison PageGUEST

Alison PageGUEST
And even when I do stalls and I sometimes take a stand at the Highland Games, it's called Brodick Highland Games rather than Arran Highland Games because that's the main village on the island.

AnneyHOST
