ARDROSSAN school pupils got a visit from a chart topping Highland cow last week.

Children’s book favourite Harris McCoo came to Stanley Primary accompanied by Murray Gee Mac, who wrote The Harris McCoo song, which has been an instant hit taking the iTunes chart by storm.

Creator Murray said: “We are absolutely mind blown at how it has taken off, but it is such a catchy song. We wrote it obviously for children but adults, teenagers and everybody loves it.

“We went straight to number two on iTunes and nu mbe r o ne o n t he Amazon chart in the first day which is crazy.”

The big cow’s visit to Ardrossan went down a storm with the Stanley pupils, as these pictures show.
