Rally - Sweet victory

Six bottles of fizz disappeared faster than cats in a kennel when the winners of this year's Armstrong Galloway Hills Rally skooshed a bedraggled and rain-sodden band of spectators at the champagne finish in Castle Douglas.

Pictured clutching their empty bottles are Jock Armstrong and Kirsty Riddick (centre) scoring their fourth Galloway Hills win, from second placed Dave Weston Jnr and Kevin Rae (doing a bit of moonlighting while David Bogie was out spectating - left) and last year's Hills winner Mark McCulloch with new co-driver Elliott Edmondson (right) who finished third overall.
