	EDITORIAL Welcome to this year's Show Schedule. Last year's Show Schedule contained a considerable number of changes; this year's edition has some minor, but hopefully beneficial refinements. These include: · In some classes reducing the number of stems/blooms in order to make it easier to enter them. · Every entry in the non petite classes of the Flower Arranging Section qualifying for a payment of £2 in addition to any prize money which is won. The payment is in recognition of the high cost of flowers. · The introduction of some new classes, for example: - Spring Show class 10, "One bloom of the daffodil 'Pink Silk'". So all of you who bought any of these bulbs as a result of the successful special promotion by the Society, do not forget to put in your entry (for which no entry fee is payable)! - Spring Show class 78 in the Flower Arranging Section, which is open to any member or non member who has never previously won a first prize for flower arranging. - Summer Show class 245, "Peas, one dish of six pods". - Summer Show class 247, "One pot containing one or more growing culinary herbs". - Autumn Show class 367, "Grasses, one vase". If you have any suggestions for future changes please let me know. May I also draw your attention that on page 8 you will find that there is an additional date on which the Sundries Centre is open (Saturday 16th October) compared with the list on your membership card. This is in response to requests from members. Have a good horticultural year and I look forward to seeing your exhibits at our shows. Martin Higgins (martin.lindfield@btinternet.com)
