Hon Sec Diane Smith writes: ‘Exhibitors at Clitheroe & DKA Open show on 14th January will be pleased to know that judge Mr Hughie Simpson made a good recovery after an overnight stay in Chorley Hospital and returned north of the border Monday evening. We are grateful to all exhibitors for their enquiries concerning his health and for their support of Mr Peter Scarth for taking over the classes in the Pastoral and Working Groups.’
