Mr and Mrs Peter and Margaret Garnett, of Hen- thom Road, Clitheroe, died in the city of Can Tho in South Vietnam after suffering a brain haemorrhage.
Funeral of a ‘fantastic dad’ Three months ago Mr Garnett, who was 48, moved

his sudden death. His daughter, Rebecca, this week paid tribute to a wonderful dad who always made people smile.

man who enjoyed partying,” she comment ed. “He loved paragliding, scuba diving, bungee jumping and many other exciting outdoor activities. He fell in love with Viet nam and decided to live there. “He was full of life, passionate about
everything he did and always made people smile.”

Planning row ends in court
A PLANNING dispute in a close-knit vil lage ended in a court appearance for a 47- year-old resident.
Blackburn magistrates heard that Kevan
Lingard had originally been charged with harassing a man who had opened a business in Sabden after allegations he had pho tographed David Warburton, his family, his friends and his business associates. Despite a police warning, he continued
with his behaviour and was put before the courts.
Lingard, of Watt Street, Sabden, admit
ted a breach of the peace and was bound over for 12 months and in the sum of £100 to keep the peace. A charge of harassment was withdrawn. Mr Richard Prew (defending) said his
client had no previous convictions and lived in Sabden with his family. "It is a small village where everyone
knows everyone’s business," said Mr Prew. "Mr Warburton came in by the back door to set up his business in the centre of the vil lage and, after five years of planning rejec tions, he eventually got permission for his engineering business." He said it was not just Lingard who was
monitoring Mr Warburton's planning appli cations.
will take their own counsel and this matter can be forgotten about," he added.
