A very Happy Lanimers to everyone!
What day! Even biblical rain did not dampen Lanarkian spirit today as we celebrated. What a supreme effort by all the Lanimer Committee, Lord Cornet and Ex Lord Cornets and their families, The Lanimer Queen, her Court and of course everyone in the procession, to make it another special Lanimers.
Thankyou everyone involved, Lanark you did yourselves proud today!

With Mairi McAllan MSP, Cllrs McAllan, Shearer, Donnelly and Clark.
