Queen and her attendents.
Date is a guess; may have been 1983.

Well if I'm not mistaken thats Aimee Leonard, so that should give a better idea of the date - saying that, I don't actually remember it!

Can't have been much later than 1985 as Aimee would have been about 17 in around 1986. Sorry that's not a huge help!

Well the girl above is definitely not Jacqueline Scott. The queen in this picture is Aimee Leonard - so the date must be earlier or later by one year. We'll get this solved one day! I should just ask Aimee....

The Pipe Band was indeed Inverkeithing pipe Band. I was very lucky to have been in the band that year. I won't forget Stromness shopping week. It is one of my favourite piping memories.
