CORNET Henry Jeffrey, his right and left-hand men Iain Little and Stuart Murray, their partners and families were entertained by his neighbours at the street party in Langholm Golf Club last Sunday, which was a perfect, dry, sunny day.
The pipe and town bands provided the entertainment and a quiz, organised by Steven Tweddle, to do with all things Common Riding and Langholm was won by Cornet Jeffrey and his team.
Presentations were made to Henry of a painting by Drew Weatherstone of the town hall clock looking along the High Street.
Flowers were presented to the Cornet’s mother, Frances, and his father, Gavin, was presented with a bottle of vodka.
The Crazy Gang provided an excellent buffet.
