Went to the Rozelle House art Gallery in Ayr and followed Mr Burns poem via the paintings by Alexander Gouldie.

This first shot is of the Bridge (Brig) over the River Doon in normal times.

The party goers saw him and they all gave chase and the women with no clothes on cut of his ponies tail, while going over the bridge.
