Congratulations to Perth, which regains its city status today for the first time since 1975. The news was announced in the UK's Parliament this morning - further details at www.thecourier.co.uk/News/Perthshire/article/21645/perth-regains-its-city-status.html?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter. The BBC also has the story at www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-tayside-central-17365611
Yay! :)
(With thanks to Perth and Kinross Archives @PFCArchives - in the Fair CITY of Perth!)
UPDATE: Congrats also to Chelmsford in England and St Asaph in Wales for the same achievement!
