Kintyre in Decline....

Postby hoots the scoop » Sun Dec 17, 2006 8:09 pm

Have read this a few times and heard people say this but wondered what people really think.

There was a very good letter in this week's courier about the ferry but one bit read "while Kintyre declined"

Do others thing Kintyre has declined in say the last 5 years?

I've lived in Kintyre for 6 years now, and i dont think it has declined since i moved here- the ferry had stopped before i got here so i can't compare what the place was like while it was running.

The opening of Aqualibrium has been a real boost for the area as has the influx of money and jobs from the Vestas peeps.

All in all the SS Kintyre is steaming along reasonably.

Having said that, the only exception to this is the Comm... was in there at the weekend for the first time since it has changed hands and by christ it's gone downhill. Shame.
