A DECADE of dedicated digging by two Sabden gar deners was rewarded on Sat urday when they swept the board a t the ^dllage’s annual show for the 10th year in succession. Friends Mr John Hartley and
Mr Alun P arfitt have been tending their plot for years and their handiwork has consistent ly been a winner at the popular show. On Saturday they won the Alan Green silver rosebowl, that has become a regular fix ture on their sideboards, for
most points in the show for the 10th time. But after their decade of suc
cess they say they will ease off and enter fewer classes next year - although other exhibitors be warned, they haven’t hung
up their spades for good. The show, in St Mary’s Hall,

was the 62nd run by Sabden Horticultural Society and was packed to the doors with visi tors jostling to see the colourful array of exhibits. From huge exhibition onions and tempting ly tasty looking vegetables to glorious gladioli, African marigolds and roses, beautifully arranged floral displays and exquisite handiwork in the needlework section, the hall was a cornucopia of colour. There was a large entry in the photography and art classes,
baking and eggs and overall the number of exhibits was well up on previous years. In fact the Sabden show is so successful that chairman Mr John Shorter said there has been an increase year on year for many years. Welcoming everyone on Satur day, he said it was good to see so many newcomers to the vil lage taking part and was good to see a revival in growing flow ers and vegetables. He thanked all who had worked hard to make the show a success. Opening the show was Coun.
Mary Robinson, Mayor of Kib ble Valley, who recalled her childhood growing up in Sab den and said it was like “com ing home”. She recalled the village shows
of years ago and in particular the year when she was a child and won a prize for painting.

Don’t let people threaten your authority. If you come across as too authoritarian, arrogant o r know it all you are sure to get people’s backs up and force a confrontation. Try to see yourself as others see you and you could save yourself a whole heap of hassles. On a more down to earth level you should deal promptly with all paperwork conneaed with cash, legal matters or fficialdom. The longer you sit on them and do nothing the more problems you will store up for yourself.

Castle Keep, built in 1186, is structurally sound. The coun cil’s tourism and arts officer, Rebecca Kay, who is spearhead ing the campaign, said: “Ribble Valley is crying out for a prime wet weather attraction and we
want to turn Clitheroe Castle into a place that people will visit for a day, not just an hour. “We are looking for people
who are enthusiastic about her itage and may have campaign ing skills to join the steering group and play a part in what we believe is the biggest commu nity campaign ever seen in Clitheroe.” The group’s first meeting is next Thursday, Sep tember 1st, at 6 p.m., at the Clitheroe Castle Museum.

A CLASSMATE from Boston, Massachusetts, returned to her Ribble Valley roots for a school reunion. Mrs Kathleen Dent (nee
Jackson) travelled across the Atlantic to meet up with fellow pupils from the class of 1946 from Clitheroe Royal Grammar School. Held at the Calf’s Head at
Worston, this year’s event had been organised by Mrs June Weaver (nee Atkinson). She was responsible for contacting girls from the class of ‘46 and inviting them along to the luncheon. These classmates have been
meeting every three years since they turned 50 and two decades on now plan to meet up every two years.
It was in 1985 that the first
reunion of the class of ’46 was held after former pupil Mrs Dorothy Patten (nee Barnes), who had moved to Florida, came back to the Ribble Valley. With a friend she went back tc the grammar school and the pair decided it was time to get back in touch with their former classmates. As a result the first reunion
was organised, initially at someone’s home, but such has been its success that the class mates now meet at a Ribble Valley venue for lunch. Our picture shows Mrs Bar
bara Holburn (nee Garrattj presenting Mrs Weaver with flowers, as a thank you for organising the event. (S050805/2)
