MEMORABLE "MAYOR-MAKING"

Pictures from last night's ceremony when Coun James Truepenny handed over the duties of Town Mayor to Coun Ben Nobbs, with Coun John Kitwood being elected the Deputy Town Mayor for 2010/11. The Mayoral switch-over was part of Brigg Town Council's annual meeting, the first citizen's duties including chairing council meetings in the Angel Suite.
