The Queen Mother is expected to attend the Highland Games on Saturday. The event is held each year near the Castle of Mey at John O' Groates in Scotland. The games include a tug-of-war and are one of the highlights of her annual three week holiday in Scotland. Her visit comes after recently undergoing a blood transfusion for anaemia at a private London hospital.
