This 70 minute DVD project, based on the stories of the people who lived and worked on the island of Ailsa Craig. This is the only place in the world where the granite for curling stones is to be found.  Written in the contemporary style of Philip Glass, the piece has around 40 cues and has 8 themes based on the island's characters, their hard lives and the ultimate loss of jobs as modern quarrying methods took over.  A moving, yet humorous tribute to their hard work and sacrifice working and living on "Paddy's Milestone"
