The outgoing Mayor Mr Councillor Skinner paid tribute in his retiring speech to the support that he received from his family during his Mayoral Year, and emphasised how important it was to receive that support.
He and the outgoing Mayoress Mrs Skinner are now looking forward to a well deserved holiday and spending more time with that family, the newest member of which is Miss Eliza Patterson, their first grandchild, seen here with them in the Mayor's Parlour just before the end of their term of office.
