Recognise anyone? It reflects great credit on the Aitken family that the RCCC chose to publish a picture of Mother Morna and Daughter Gina, both of whom had Scotland on their backs - Morna in the Scottish Ladies team playing with our own Susan Kesley and Fran Stretton, ably assisted by Vicky Gumley in the World Senior Ladies Curling Championship, and Gina, partnered by Scott Andrews, playing in the World Mixed Doubles Championship.
Susan's team was coached by David Aitken so it was a real family affair out in Stavanger in Norway. As members will know, Susan, Fran, Vicky and Morna came agonisingly close to a medal, just losing out to Switzerland in the Bronze Medal play-off game, having earlier lost the semi-final to a strong Canadian team that went on to win Gold in the final.
