Glasgow to hold Olympic Games victory parade

SportScotland said the event would be a "fitting and appropriate celebration" for all Scottish Olympians and Paralympians. Scottish athletes won a record 13 Olympic medals at the Games, including the two golds for Sir Chris Hoy which made him Britain's most successful Olympian.
