Annie Drummond, of Peebles, raised a glass of bubbly to mark the special occasion in Dovecot Court. The youngest child of Jessie and Arthur Smith, Annie was born in Peebles Northgate and had four siblings – her brothers Jackie and Arthur, and sisters Jessie and Jeanie. Tragedy soon followed Annie’s arrival when a week after she was born, her father drowned in the River Tweed. This wasn’t the only heartache the family suffered, as her brother Arthur died of whooping cough as a young boy. Annie served in the Second World War in the Auxiliary Territorial Service and carried out sentry duty at night, keeping watch for enemy planes flying over.
