After a fantastic Odd Fellows family fun day today with a fantastic representation of dogs and families there was just one prize which failed to get mentioned. The winner of the adult buzz wire was Curl Edge with a close second by Phil Kirkham. A massive well done and thank you to everyone. More photos to follow.

Our cottage on Lenscliffe has an oil-fired Rayburn that needs to be serviced. Our usual company, Norton’s, seems to have gone out of business. Does anyone know of a good engineer who could do this for us?

We have received the following from Charlotte Bradbury-Wilkinson. If you have any information please contact them direct..
To the person or people who think it is acceptable to drive onto our land and deface it in such a manner this is unacceptable. Yes cobblers nook lane runs through as a through route but it does not give people the right to do this to our land! On the field next to this was a group of dry cows, some of which are due to calve soon. This happened last night as the gates were left open incase the dry cows got out so they would go onto the adjacent field and not wander off down the lane or onto the road. Any one with details to whom may have done this please contact me.

Bradbourne Mill was acquired as a ruin some years ago and was restored and converted into accommodation. Since then it has changed hands and the new owners have done more restoration work and investigated the history.
They are offering the Parwich and Local District History Society a private tour and talk on 18th July (10am meet), to look round the building and the site and hopefully see some of the machinery in action.
There are a few places left… If you are interested please email parwich.history.society@gmail.com by 5pm 16th July.
£5per person, which includes refreshments

Wakes 2023 you have been awesome. What a week! We have had the most support and visitors we have had for several years. It’s been action packed and we are completely exhausted but happy to have seen so many friends new and old. We are a truly special village and we need to remember and try and maintain that as long as possible.
Wakes would not be possible without the help and support from so many volunteers, the Oddfellows, Kirsty, Jane and the Sycamore Team and everyone at the Legion. So from me to you thank you. It’s time for a rest now but we will be back in 2024.
I just wanted to leave you with one of my favourite photos of Wakes so far, showing one of our Carnival Committee going above and beyond.

Signing off for now
