Today’s Ashbourne News Telegraph, although having many interesting articles, seems to be suffering Parwich fatigue this week after last week’s bumper edition. It has been harder work this week to find local links, but our readers might be interested in the following:
- p.3 The Lady Bay Revellers (West Bridgeford) and the Guernsey Belles (Channel Islands) will be dancing in front of Tisssington Hall at 3pm on Sunday.
- p.4 The Ashbourne Highland Gathering on Sunday.
- p.10 Publication of ‘Circular Walks around Hognaston’ available at £1 from Red Lion (Hognaston).
- p.28 & 20 Two page spread on the open air Songs of Praise at Carsington Water last Sunday.
- p.32 Tickets still available for the Y Not Festival. A full page feature on the programme. Don’t forget if you link through from our site £5 from each ticket you buy goes towards Project Parwich.
- p.54 Ashbourne Town Darts AGM coming up on Thursday 24th July at 8-30pm at the Compton Social Club. All teams must be represented to register for next season (registration fee £50).
- p.55 Some relatively local names in the results for Ashbourne Flying Club in both the overseas race from Saintes in France and from Hullavington in Wiltshire.
- p.55 Summer League football results.
As always let us know what we have missed
