Medallion man Rory’s a design hit
Rory Andrew, who lives in Bathgate, received the award in London. The 20-year-old became a familiar face on London Underground after featuring in a series of advertisements for the “skills Olympics”.
Featuring in the posters was just one of the perks that came with the place on the UK team for the event, which pitted competitors from all over the world against one another in categories ranging from floristry to welding.
