This child’s bedside cabinet has become surplus to requirements and is available free to a good home. It has been hand-painted with a space theme. There is some paint damage on the top surface, but otherwise it is in good condition.
If you can make use of it, ring Mike and Sue on 334 to arrange collection.

Septic tank advice / recommendation
Can anyone recommend a good septic tank adviser / fixer? Our septic tank is not smelling too good but I don’t want to take a name out of the yellow pages and then find that I’ve called a cowboy who advises us to do lots of things which didn’t actually need doing.
Thank you,
Lynne at the Red House

After a long time with a pretty severe back problem and lots of money spent trying to cure it, I have found an ace! Stephen Marshall at Peak Osteopathy (Alport near Youlgreave) Tel 01629 636997. He has straightened me out and I fell as right as rain at last.
Thank you to Don for giving us this invaluable information.
I would also like to say how much I have been helped with a hip problem, from being in regular discomfort and needing cortisone injections, now I am currently pain free since being “worked over” by Stephen.
When you ring you need to leave a message and he is excellent about ringing you back promptly – as he works from home he will often be able to slot you in when other osteopaths make you wait for several days. Another advantage with Stephen is that he is honest with you about how many sessions you might have to attend and whether or not it is a problem that he can help you with. He is also very local.

A letter addressed to Mrs J Bolton and a package addressed to Mr S Woods have been delivered to Creamery Cottage during the week. Neither the letter nor the package look like junk mail, and so we are keen to pass them on to their rightful owners.
All information gratefully received! Our phone number is 503.
– Mike A.
Update #1: Julie B has been successfully traced; thanks to Lyn and Jane for the info.
Update #2: The package has also now been claimed; thanks to those who passed the message on.

If anyone is interested in a couple of hours work to saw this pile into chunks for a wood burning stove, please contact Mike and Sue on 334. Alternatively, if you know of someone who might be interested, please ring or add a comment below.
A buzz saw would be a decided advantage for this job!
p.s. The pots don’t need chopping!

Gordon the Hallgates cat has gone walkabouts again. Please could call 390626 if you see him. He’s big, black and fluffy. He does tend to vanish for long periods but he’s been away a bit too long now.

It’s not too late to join the Snail Trail Sale– so far Barbara has 19 people who could be making a small fortune at their garden gate selling all those things too valuable to throw away but too much effort to do anything else about. You can sell anything from antiques, unwanted furniture, Aunty’s Christmas presents for the last twenty years to books, jewellery and toys. Everything will be organised for you – all you have to do is put a table or gazebo up and fill it with your unwanted items. Stall fees will be going to the new Memorial Hall and you can also donate some of your profits if you wish. Contact Barbara Lowe on 390279.

The Autumn Flame Candle Company, based in Parwich, is to be re-launched.
Tracy Marshall first set up the Company, making and selling candles from her own home between four and five years ago. “I was always interested in art and crafts and wanting to make my own things. I was interested in making cards and got a craft magazine. I saw a candle making kit at the back and ordered it. I was hooked. I started buying more and more moulds, different waxes and colours, just doing my own thing.”
The idea was to create a home business that could start small alongside having a family, but that had the potential to grow. However, when Tracy was pregnant with her son, now aged two, she had some health difficulties and the wax smells from the candle making process made her feel sick. The new company had to be put on hold. (more…)

Having stumbled across this ‘Lost in Parwich’ list, could I add a ‘largish’ yellow diamond – the solitaire from my engagement ring – lost somewhere on the playing field car park (close to the entrance to the cricket field) or on the cricket field (close to the entrance to the car park, to the right hand side of the entrance as one approaches from the car park).
How does one search for a diamond??

I misplaced my silver digital camera on Wakes Saturday. It was left around the fairground about 9pm. The camera was in a little black LowePro Camera Case.
If anyone happens to have found it, please can they let me know as I had taken some cracking shots of Wakes on it!
You can either let me or any other Wigley in the village know.
Thanks,

Loan wanted
My sister and her daughter are coming to visit from France from Monday 25th August to Friday 29th August and I wonder whether anyone has a second stage child car seat we could borrow for those days. My niece is two and a half so the seat I am looking for is the bulky one – i.e. the one after you carry a baby in but before the one with a booster and a back. If you do, please leave me a message on the website or on the phone to Lynne on 474. Thank you very much.

On Wakes Saturday evening, Amy (aged 6) lost her “Next” camouflage-coloured hoody – probably somewhere at the fairground.
If anyone happens to have picked it up, I should be very grateful if you would either hand it to anyone at Parwich school to pass onto her, or call me on 474.

OK, so this is a long shot – but does anyone has a vinyl or cassette copy of the album Val Doonican Rocks, But Gently lurking in their attics? Although long since deleted (and unavailable on CD), this album not only topped the charts in early 1968, but it even knocked The Beatles’ classic Sergeant Pepper from the Number One position – proving that you should never underestimate the power of a crooner in a cardigan !
If you do own a copy, then please contact Mike Atkinson at parwich@hotmail.co.uk, as I would very much like to borrow it for a few days, in order to assist a friend’s research for a project.
As an added incentive, I will also make a donation to Project Parwich upon receipt of the album.

Can you help during the Flower Festival in Parwich Church (Friday 4th to Sunday 6th July)? The Church will be open from 11am to 6pm (Friday and Saturday) and from 2pm to 5pm on Sunday with refreshments served.
Volunteers are needed for one or two hour slots to act as stewards in the Church or to help with refreshments.
Also we are looking to borrow a number of largish glass carboys or demijohns to put in the church to collect visitors’ donations. Can you help, or do you have any suitable alternatives?

Although there are a number of stalls planned for the market on the Green on Wakes Saturday (from 11am onwards, Saturday 28th June 2008), there is still room for more. Individuals or local groups interested in running a stall should contact the Carnival and Recreation Committee (phone Barbara L on tel 279).
It is a great opportunity for local groups to promote themselves and to undertake fund raising activities, or for crafts folk to sell their wares, or for whatever you can think of (as long as it is legal and not indecent).

Have you got a small wheelbarrow, with the main body being about 2 feet long (excluding the handles). If it looks old, rusty, a bit broken, wood or metal that would be perfect. We need to borrow one for one of the displays at the flower festival, can you help us out?

I have just bought on CD the complete Mozart piano concertos performed by Barenboim and the English Chamber Orchestra. Also the complete Prokofiev piano concertos by Ashkenazy, Previn and the LSO, and more…..
I’d happily offer these on short-term loan to anyone in the village who would like to borrow them.
And in return, do you have classical CDs you could lend me? I’m interested in Baroque music, Stravinsky, or W.H.Y.
I don’t mind keeping lists for distribution to participants of what CDs folk in the village are willing to swap.

The last allotments in Parwich went at the end of the Second World War. However, a few people have expressed an interest in again finding a place locally to grow some vegetables. It could be an unused part of someone’s garden or part of a field. If anyone has any land that they would be happy for others to use (rent could be in kind: vegetables or a bit of gardening) or if you also want to find somewhere yourself in or around Parwich please email parwich@hotmail.co.uk and we will pass the information on.

Hopefully this will encourage more people to place classified adverts on this site. Just e-mail parwich@hotmail.co.uk, and we’ll do the rest.

We are looking for a few more public-spirited grass enthusiasts to help with mowing the grass in the church yard.
At the moment, we are struggling to keep the grass under control, and a couple more willing helping hands would really make a difference.

Any help will guarantee an invitation to the Parwich social event of the year: “The Mower’s Ball”.

Due to unforseen circumstances, I have a spare pair of tickets to see The Osmonds at the Birmingham National Indoor Arena (NIA) on Bank Holiday Monday (May 26th).
I’m offering the tickets at the knock-down rate of £20 each, which is less than half the original asking price. The money will be paid directly to Project Parwich, so this is a great chance to enjoy a night out and do your bit for the Memorial Hall.
This will also be no ordinary Osmonds show! To celebrate their 50th anniversary in show business, the whole family – Donny, Jimmy, Marie, Alan, Wayne, Merrill and Jay – will be reunited on stage in the UK for the first time in over twenty years. So if you fancy rolling back the years to the strains of Crazy Horses, Love Me For A Reason, Let Me In, Puppy Love, Paper Roses… and yes, even Long Haired Lover From Liverpool, then this is the show for you.
The seats are situated on the lower tier of Block 4, in row J. Click here to view the seating plan. Unlike the cavernous Birmingham NEC, the NIA seats a relatively modest 4,500 people, so the view of the stage should be a good one.
If you’d like the tickets, then please e-mail parwich@hotmail.co.uk.

We have a dozen antique oak beams that are left over from our house renovation. We believe they are around 400 years old, and were removed from a barn when it was renovated in Winster, so are presumably local in origin.
They vary in length to over 10 ft. with varying diameters of 6 to over 8 inches. If anyone knows anyone who could use them, we are looking for offers around £250 for the lot, with any buyer removing them.
If you are interested, please call 390344.
