SUTTON IN ASHFIELD 11.08.2002

Hi your roving reporter here again, we have had some light relief since my last report. My under-study Lowes Lain Kilburn was relieved of her journalistic powers at the last minute as Emley Show was cancelled.
Firstly we all must thank Mick Turnidge for his warning Saturday evening about the soggy ground and to bring adequate footwear. This was passed on to all concerned and proper footwear was used. (Sue Kilburn wore proper boots not those polythene ones she wore at Golcar. Pat had them in her pocket just in case.)
The Golcar show had prepared us for this bad ground, we were given straw to put on the ground to absorb the water and mud, we also collapsed the spare tables and used them as hard standings for the chairs. From setting up to handing out the prizes it was all go' I didn't know whether I was coming or going. It was a good thing that Barbara Colpman had a couple of hours spare to sell the tombola tickets.
The only other thing that club members were worried about was: the contents of a coke bottle Sue Washbrook was drinking from, it looked like the chemicals that we clean our judging trays with.


Yours truly, The Roving Reporter. (The Blade)

Judge (Syrian) - Mrs S Washbrook
