The wee Welsh Rugby Scarf arrived in Hawick this morning.

The scarf wanted to be driven to the rugby ground.

Mansfield Park, the home of Hawick Rugby Football Club, one of Scotland's top teams.
This rugby ground has also hosted the Hawick Highland Games.
Hawick was the home town of the late Bill McLaren, radio and television rugby commentator.

Next was a visit to Hawick's oldest building, the sixteenth century Drumlanrig's Tower.

Followed by a visit to the Beanscene cafe in the old Tower Mill

for coffee on the glass floor above the water wheel.

The scarf visited the sculpture of William of Rule.
William of Rule saved the life of King Robert the Bruce when he turned the head of a bull which was charging on the king. His reward was to be granted the name Turnbull.

A visit to the Hawick Horse which commemorates a victory over the English at the Battle of Hornshole in 1514.

The scarf met a bus which had previously operated for a Welsh bus company

Finally a visit to House of Cheviot, Hawick Sock Company, where the scarf met a display of kilt hose.
Time is tight for the scarf to complete the itinerary so no time was wasted and the scarf is already on its way to Chrisupyonder.
