The Kintyre Forum

We moved to Campbeltown around Easter 2010 and sorry it has taken so long to log into the forum, as we have been viewing as 'guests' since long before our move to the area.

I work as a bus driver with West Coast, word has it I'm no longer the 'newest' driver, my wife Ros works as a clerical officer at the hospital, we have children at Castlehill & the big school.

We are so pleased with Campbeltown, we previously stayed in a built up part of the West Yorkshire conurbation which to cut a long story short the crime reports and trouble there was so bad! We have always wanted to move to the seaside, spent alot of time in Durness and the Northwest Highlands, but I think the beaches here are the tops! People are so friendly too, a big change from the city, but we love it!!

Welcome to the Forum and to Campbeltown

Very different to West Yorks. Bet you don't miss the traffic - always hearing of problems on the M62... Just got to watch out for the landslides on the Rest and be Thankful

Thank you Kevin, yes its nice to be able to actually drive along roads!

Hi there.

Durness I hear you say. I am originally from the town but moved up to Thurso about six years ago. Through one of my friends up here I got involved with Durness FC and ended up playing football for the for the past 4 years.

I have spent alot of time there and think it is absolutely brilliant. As for the beaches, some of the finest around!

Welcome to the forum russanros. Enjoy!

Welcome to the forum, russanros, & lucky you for living in Campbeltown!!
