Back in the 1970s, 80s and 90s Corrie Capers was a week-long summer celebration of exuberant games, mischief, community spirit and committed partying. Corrie is one of Arran’s most picturesque villages and I’m fair chuffed to hear just how much is going on these days.
PLAY THIS EPISODE NOW.
There’s a consensus that something’s happening in Corrie. A group of more sprightly, younger people who live in the village is busy promoting Corrie and what it has to see and do. For what seems like a picturesque yet sleepy village strung out along the shore Corrie is a vibrant and exiting place.
PS Waverley re-enacted a ferry-run in the early 1990s. Please get in touch if you’ve got a photograph of this or anything to do with Corrie Capers you’re willing to share.
