Interviewer: They're wanting, eh, toilets at Westport.
Andy: What for, the surfers?
Interviewer: Aye.
Andy: Who's gonna--
Interviewer: Exactly.
Andy: You know, it's all very well having these things but then who pays for the cleaning of them and maintaining of them and-- You know? Everybody wants stuff but naybody wants to pay for it.
Interviewer: No. Or maintain it.
Andy: If the surfer's want to make a wee group and put so much away that they can have something like this, fine.
Interviewer: They're wanting an outdoor shower as well I think. Not, obviously, like a fancy thing but just somewhere that they can--
Andy: Aye, but it'll need to get plumbed in, that'll be quite a lot of work to dig up roads and--
Interviewer: Then they'll be moaning about the roads being shut.
Andy: And then the same as again-- I know. I know you cannae no dae things because you're worried that stuff'll get vandalised but it's kind of the middle of nowhere and could very easily get vandalised, you'd never know who done it.
Interviewer: Unless they install CCTV.
Andy: If it had been done, you know. Aye.
