Musings from the Merse

I don't know if Stranraer features as one of Britain's 'Crap Towns' It certainly does in the Hutton Think Tank's new production 'Thirty Minutes in Certain Places'
The entry for 'What to do if you have half an hour in Stranraer?' :
Go to Tescos
And if you can squeeze in another 15 minutes?
Go to WH Smiths.
It is inaccurate to describe this place as crap.
It much worse than that
(But hard to avoid if you want to go to Norn Iron by High Speed Ferry.
Which we did and are once again
"Where the Mountains of Mourne Sweep Down to the Sea")

Comments:
I went to Stranraer once, for the same reason as you, unfortunately I made the mistake of arriving early for my ferry. Next time I shall arrive within 5 minutes of the departure time in order to avoid spending any more time there than necessary
Dangerous cuttingit so fine. If you miss it you will have 5 hours in Stranraer. And Tescos might be shut.
