THE OLYMPIC TORCH

On the 12th June 2012 the Olympic torch came to Abernethy. I went to the bottom of Castlelaw Crescent where a party from Kilgraston School Bridge of Earn and lots of other people had all gathered to welcome the Olympic Flame. When Carol Ann, the first torch bearer got off the bus, she asked me if I would like my photo taken with her and the Olympic Torch, this was very exciting for me and it is a moment I will always treasure. It was a fun afternoon with, soft drinks and lots of people to make this a great day to remember.
