A couple celebrating their 60th year of marriage were presented with a card from Her Majesty the Queen.

Mrs Whiteford, the Lord Lieutenant, said: "Al has lived in Nigg all of his life, having been a very well respected shepherd of Cheviot sheep and many people local to Tain will know Leila, for her good humour in Grants the Bakers.
