We read recently that Dave Quelch has passed away at home aged 85 years. Dave, together with his wife Jenifer, were landlords of the The Black Horse pub in Foxton and The Bell in Gumley which had quite a lot of cricket memorabilia on the wall. He will be greatly missed by family and friends.

This will be on an ad hoc basis so nothing set in stone, as they say. Contact Marie-Anne Beere on Tel:07990768325 or via email to distribution@kibworthchronicle.com to offer your services.
