Inter House Relay
The McRae baths were the scene of the Olympic Swimming Club's annual inter-house relay in which 64 teams were competing.
As the lively programme progressed, much excitement was evident amongst the groups of high-spirited supporters which packed the stand.
The closely contested final resulted in a narrow win for the Public Trust B team.
