RAIN and fog did not dampen the enthusiasm at Delabole's 40th Annual Show on Saturday, August 18.

Entries were up by almost 25 per cent on last year as exhibitors entered into the celebratory spirit.

Judges commented on the exceptional quality of the flowers and vegetables on display considering this year's challenging growing conditions.

The special anniversary classes across the Art, Handicraft, Floral Art and Cookery sections attracted many entries.
