June 27th - Louise the Torchbearer!

Wednesday June 27th, and Lincoln was in the spotlight
as the Olympic torch relay came to town.

The point of interest here was one particular Torchbearer,
the Dragons' Louise,
whose 'run' was scheduled for just after 6 p.m.

Here she is earlier in the afternoon, all ready for the off.

 

Special thanks to Kelly Nicholls,
James Spittlehouse,
Phil Krstic,
Matt Allen
and Jane Smith for the pictures.

Well done, indeed!

Louise's comment later:
Had an absolutely amazing day! Thanks for all the kind and supportive messages and to those who came to cheer me on and those that watched online! It was a brilliant experience and will treasure forever! Feel very honoured to have been chosen. Thank you ♥
