Hold the ferry!

Cumbrae ferry at Largs - waiting to board the ferry...

This bus attempted to drive on but got stuck on the ramp. Front and back were both touching the ground; it couldn't go forward or backwards. Several people walked around it scratching their heads, looking under the bus, maneuvering the ferry and trying to get the bus onto ramps.

We were beginning to think our Cumbrae cycle was off, but after about 20 minutes they decided to take the passengers off, and move the ferry out a bit into the water. This dropped the front of the bus into the Clyde, but meant the back was no longer was touching the ground so the driver quickly reversed back up the slip, with water pouring out of the front!

Fab day by the way with some fantastic people from QP, and the sun splitting the sky!!
