    7/7/2003 Britain's Queen Elizabeth II wears a button hole of Bollan Bane, the national herb of the Isle of Man after presiding over the Tynwald ceremony during a day long visit to the Island. The Manx Parliament - the oldest continuous parliament in the world - established more than 1,000 years ago by Viking settlers, held its annual open-air sitting in the picturesque village of St John's, in the west of the island. The Queen, who holds the title of Lord of Mann, attended the Tynwald ceremony, as thousands gathered to celebrate the island's national day. (PA)
