NICOLA Sturgeon has marked her 10th wedding anniversary with a throwback to her big day.
The First Minister shared a snap of her and husband Peter Murrell to celebrate the occasion.
Posted by SNP chief executive Murrell, the caption read “3,653 days and counting...”
Re-tweeting, the FM wrote “10 years” with a love heart emoji.

The pair have been together since 2003 and were married in Glasgow in 2010.
The tweets have been liked and shared thousands of times, with scores of social media users sending their congratulations.
Justice Minister Humza Yousaf wrote: "This is the most on-brand Peter Murrell tweet I've seen. Congrats to you both!"
MSP Gillian Martin posted: “Happy anniversary to you both!”
@PeterMurrell Happy anniversary to you both!

As well as congratulating the First Minister, several commenters hailed her handling of the coronavirus crisis. And some south of the Border even had a special request.
“Congratulations,” one wrote. “Could you possibly move to England and take over from Boris? Lol. Stay safe.”
Another posted: “Congratulations a lovely photo. Would you please come and rum England on your day off? Have a great day.”
A separate comment read: “Congratulations. But do you ever see each other these days because I was only thinking the other day how much work and effort you put into Covid in representing your government in comparison to our PM who doesn't work weekends or read long documents.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
