Friday 10th July saw us in Stranraer having new tyres fitted to our van. After nearly 7 years and 52,000 miles our original ones had finally had enough.



From Stranraer we went south east along the coast and stopped off briefly at the village of Port William. We found this notice by the harbour. This illustrates the kind of unenlightened ignorance we have to but up with from time to time. I wonder where the locals who don't have off street parking are supposed to leave their vehicles overnight?



We couldn't resist visiting Kings Green Caravan site just down the road which was sporting this disgusting notice at the entrance. Surely there must be a law against this kind of thing? What if it said "no Irish" or "no blacks"?



As you can imagine we had no desire to stay in Port William so we moved on to The Isle of Whithorn and visited Saint Ninian's Chapel on the edge of the village.



The Isle of Whithorn is a really pretty place with beautiful rocks. I went fishing but unfortunately broke my fishing rod in two! I am the worst fishing person in the world and now I haven't even got a fishing rod.



To make up for this disaster we went out for some fish for our evening meal at the local pub by the harbour. The village has a really nice grassy area where visitors can park or camp. Port William please take note!
