Centenarian gets a royal message
Birthday girl Margaret Harrower had a celebration fit for a centenarian as she marked her 100th birthday with a royal seal of approval.
The resident at Ashlea Court care home in Ashgill received a card from King Charles and Queen Camilla to mark her extra-special birthday, along with commemorative gifts from two namesakes - Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Lanarkshire Margaret Morton and South Lanarkshire Provost Margaret Cooper.
Described by family and care home staff as "a remarkable woman", great-grandmother Margaret served as a Land Girl during World War II and proudly showed her service medal on her birthday, and shared her advice to "enjoy life and make the most of what you have".
