Free Paint

We have several boxes and bags full of Dulux emulsion and other paint  tins and cartons, in a multitude of colours and each part used. Quite  a lot of it.

We don’t want it to go to landfill, if possible. If anybody would like  to come and collect it from Fernlea House opposite the village hall,  please just turn up or call us on 500.

You’ll be very welcome to take it away for free.

Accommodation wanted

We have received the following request:

I have recently returned to the UK after spending 25 years in Europe and am looking for lodgings in the Parwich area, after falling in love with the place.

I am employed by a charitable organisation and am based in Derby: as I cannot afford to rent a property on my own I wondered if you know of anybody who would house share or take in a lodger. I am a pretty versatile person and would slot into any household, share tasks and help – on the proviso that I can have a room with ensuite facilities.

I am 49 years of age, I don’t smoke and my one and only daughter is studying at university in Spain ( although I would like her to be able to stay with me during her uni breaks).

You can contact me by email suedaviesmv@hotmail.com.

Would anyone be able to look after our cocker spaniel Lily for us for next week?

Ideally, this would be from the morning of Monday August 8th to early evening on Sunday August 14th.

However, we do have a bit of flexibility and could adapt to Thursday to early Sunday evening, or from Friday morning to early Sunday evening.

Commercial rates paid!

As all local kennels are fully booked, it would help us a lot if anyone could have her.

Please phone me on 07767 426107.

Many thanks

It’s Gotta Go!

Avril is selling her Peugeot 206 coupe cabriolet which she’s had from new and is in very good condition. Its only done 26,500 miles (!) and has been kept garaged. Its automatic with a 1.6 litre engine that does about 39 miles to the gallon. MOT’d until 18th March 2012, it also has road tax paid until February 2012.

Yours for £3,100, not a high price for such a low mileage car with a retractable electric roof. By the way, both car and roof have been completely reliable.

You can see it by calling Avril or Keith on 01335 390500 or calling at Fernlea House opposite the Village Hall.

I have 2 tickets for Sunday 17th July 10.30am at the Buxton Festival (excellent seats 2nd row)

Will Hutton – Them and Us: Politics, Greed and Inequality
17 July, 10.30am. Opera House

Will Hutton’s latest book shows how our society has fragmented into inequality and sets out a powerful and brilliantly argued call for a fair society. His heartfelt campaign is for no less than a radical transformation of Britain, from its political system, media, and its over-reliance on big finance to the very values we live by. Writer, columnist and former editor of The Observer, Will Hutton musters convincing arguments for political change based on a firm moral framework, and his book is certain to inform the current affairs agenda for some time to come.

Tickets: £10

Please let me know if you can use them.
