    At the closing ceremony.
    Our Chieftain had to leave early and I stood beside Provost Zandra Elliot to take the closing salute.

    Massed bands marching for the final salute.

    Thumbs up

    What a great set of photos Alex, of what looked like a grand event. Looked like a wonderful setting too.
    Nice to see Ann out enjoying the sight & sound of the pipes and tartan.

    Kudos to the man of many hats tis' day!
