Lovely red skies last night over Parwich.

Followed by a misty morning this morning. Is the end of summer in sight?

Richard Town posted the following on our Facebook page:
I was walking through your delightful village on Sunday 24th July en route to Tissington and mislaid my Panasonic Lumix camera. The last photograph I took was of a couple of calves in the open door barn in the first field on leaving the village for Tissington. I walked the route yesterday but did not find the camera. I wonder if anyone has found the camera. There are many photographs on the camera I would hate to lose and I am happy to reward the finder.
If you have any information you can either message him via Facebook (see his post https://www.facebook.com/parwich/posts/1085139101521293) or let the Blog Team know (parwich@hotmail.co.uk) and we will pass a message on.
Update, 27th July 2014: Camera Found
Thank you Richard for this update
Thank you for posting my missing camera report. I am pleased to say it has been discovered close to Tissington. It is badly damaged but I hope I may be able to recover the memory card. Best wishes to you all and thank you.

The Horticultural Show this year takes place on Sunday 4 September (schedules out soon).

As well as a few tweaks to the usual classes, there is a completely new Craft category consisting of 4 classes:
The Photography categories for this year are:
Photographs to be no bigger than A4 in size and to have been taken within 20 miles of Parwich.
Time to get crafting and snapping!!!

… to the hottest day of the year so far.
With temperatures in Parwich approaching 30°C at midday and possibly getting higher, make sure you have your sun block on.

Indeed they come in fast and furious, so it can be hard to find what you are looking for. Here is a list of the posts and links to them, which will hopefully make reading the Blog easier:

Congratulations and a big well done to all the competitors who took part in the race tonight! Apologies if I didn’t get a photo of everyone on the hill (some of you were going too fast for me!)
More pictures (more…)

The hill is looking in great condition for tonight’s races after a steward’s inspection this afternoon.
Meanwhile Sam has declared the going as “good” 🙂

Lots of people will have their cameras out during Wakes, so don’t forget that there is a Photography section in the Horticultural Show in early September. Here is a reminder:
The Photography categories are:
- All in a row
- Purple
- A single flower in focus
Photographs to be no bigger than A4 in size and to have been taken within 20 miles of Parwich.
Time to get snapping!!!
Also please do share you Wakes photos through the Blog by emailing them to parwich@hotmail.co.uk.

The Blog Team said thank you to JFS yesterday over a cream tea. JFS has been a photographic stalwart, recording nearly every Parwich event for our website. It has been a mammoth task which he has approached not only with quiet fortitude but also displaying considerable artistic skill . We hope that he will continue to bring his camera with him every time he comes to Parwich.
Thank you so much for the silver swallow, a beautiful piece of delicate work. It was suggested that an ear lobe would be the place to wear it. However it will be placed on my sun hat. I will treasure it. JFS
