    Commonwealth Games Queens Baton Relay and Kilts


    The Queen's Baton Relay for the Commonwealth Games arrived in town today.

    The Baton was carried around town.


    Awaiting arrival of the Baton at the Town Hall.

    Eager anticipation.

    Waiting patiently.

    Some of the Baton Bearers wore kilts for the sections which they ran with the Queen's Baton.

    Kilted gent and Clyde the official Commonwealth Games mascot.

    A final line up of Baton Bearers.
