Thistle do just right for Lord Patel
THE Queen has formally installed the first Scottish Asian to be made a Knight of the Order of the Thistle.
Lord Patel of Dunkeld, a retired consultant obstetrician and academic, was honoured at St Giles' Cathedral.
A fanfare marked the start of the event, and the Queen, the Duke of Edinburgh and the Princess Royal joined a procession to the Thistle Chapel.
