Despite the very cold and dismal weather we have had so far this year, the Spring Show of the Chipperfield Horticultural Society was a great success. Table after table were covered with vases of daffodils of so many different varieties all bursting with colour and looking wonderful, you could feel that spring is just around the corner. Pots and vases of other plants and blooms, vegetables of all shapes and sizes filled the tables together with wonderful displays of handicraft. The floral exhibits were fantastic and showed such flair and talent. The domestic section was mouth watering with the Simnel cakes in particular looking stunning.
The photography had three classes and these are going from strength to strength. All our prize winners thoroughly deserved their success and are to be congratulated. Show Secretary, Roger Pigg, had organised another wonderful show.
All in all a great day in spite of the weather and our thanks go to all our judges and stewards who helped to make the show such a success.
