Best info I have at the moment is that Green Bin and associated Food Caddy collection is still suspended.

Green bin is due to start again week commencing 15th March. Food caddy continues to be fortnightly (with Grey bin) until crew numbers improve sufficiently.

Sam E has asked me to share the following..

One of our sheep has been attacked by a dog on Ballidon quarry ground. It has happened between 4pm yesterday and 10am this morning. She is heavy in lamb carrying 3 lambs, but is badly injured so is going to have to be put down. If anyone has any information please contact Sam on 07933 373677.

Blue bin collection has been a bit hit and miss in some areas but hopefully we’ll get a collection this week!

On behalf of the family I would like to thank each and every one of you who came to stand outside church on Friday for Alison’s funeral and to those who stood outside in Ballidon and along the roadside whilst we made our way into Parwich.
I would also like to thank you all for your kind donations which will be going to Cancer Research Uk.
We are sorry you couldn’t join us in church but here is Alison’s eulogy which Carl wrote and read for her. 
Thanks again, Shaun and family. 

Alison asked me some time ago if I would read out some words for her when this day came. She never got round to finishing what she wanted me to read but did leave instruction that I was to say something and I had to make it funny. So no pressure then…

Santa will be doing a slow driving tour around the village today (20th) from 5pm.

The tour will start at the Village Green following the route below. It is expected to return back to the Village Green around 5.35-5.45pm.

Please can you all stand outside your houses, adults with a Christmas drink (I’ve heard Santa is partial to the odd tipple!!) and children with bells – or anything which makes a noise (the louder the better!) To cheer him on and wish him a safe journey back to Lapland before he starts his major job on Christmas Eve.

Any questions just let me know lucywigley@googlemail.com

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club

Oil prices continue to rise as increased demand from China and India sees them buying more oil than the previous month. Brent Crude is now over $52 a barrel. Delivery times are currently between 7 and 10 working days but are subject to weather and supply conditions.

Beat the January rush – Orders this weekend are most likely to be delivered after Christmas with the 10 working day deliveries being made by the 7th January, so please do order early if you require oil in January. As always in the winter months, supply is subject to weather and supply conditions. We hope there will not be any Brexit disruption but most of our fuel is imported so please order early.

However, if you are already very low or have run out, this group order will not be suitable.

Rate:  £0.3595 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

Don’t forget you can still complete the Elf Trail up until Sunday 20th December 🎅🎅🎄😍. If you don’t know the village too well you may want to leave out 9, 10 and 11 as they are quite a trek but you can still guess the words and get a treat 😉. You can walk straight from West View across in front of the Church to Church Cottage. If you are unsure just message me (lucywigley@googlemail.com). The pub shop is open to collect sheets 10.30am – 2.30pm Saturday and Sunday.

Happy hunting

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club

Oil prices rise as the market is full of vaccine optimism, notably out of the UK, which started mass vaccinations on Tuesday. Brent Crude is up at $50 a barrel. Delivery times are currently between 7 and 10 working days but are subject to weather and supply conditions.

Be sure you order early – Suppliers delivery slots are now filling up as we count down to Christmas, the New Year and Brexit. Whilst many orders will be delivered before Christmas this can no longer be guaranteed and as always in the winter months, supply is subject to weather and supply conditions. We hope there will not be any Brexit disruption but most of our fuel is imported so please order early.

However, if you are already very low or have run out though, this group order will not be suitable..

Copies of the map will be available from The Sycamore Pub shop or you can download it here.

Once you have completed the trail return to the Sycamore shop where they have very kindly donated a small treat for each child.

Any questions or problems just email friend to the elves Lucy M lucywigley@googlemail.com

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club

Brent Crude passes $49 a barrel today on news that OPEC+ have agreed to maintain the majority of the current production cuts from January 2021. Delivery times are currently between 7 and 10 working days but are subject to weather and supply conditions.

Be sure you order early. Suppliers delivery slots are now filling up as we count down to Christmas. If you require fuel before Christmas, this may be the last weekend to ensure this happens and, as always in the winter months, supply is subject to weather and supply conditions. We hope there will not be any Brexit disruption but most of our fuel is imported so please order early.

However, if you are already very low or have run out though, this group order will not be suitable.

The Elves are starting to get super excited they have found enough helpers in the Village to do their Elf Trail. It will be available on here and from the pub from Saturday 12th – Sunday 20th December. Take your map, find all the cheeky Elves with their letters then claim your prize from the pub.

Any questions email our helper Lucy M – lucywigley@googlemail.com

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club

Continued developments in the Covid-19 vaccine and expectations that OPEC+ will roll over the current cuts for a further three months from January 2021, have pushed Brent Crude past $48 a barrel this week, up $10 from a month ago. Delivery times are currently between 7 and 10 working days.

Have you checked your oil levels? With Christmas only 4 weeks away and oil prices now rising, we recommend doing a visual check of your oil tank. Prices in December are often much higher than normal due to increased demand for deliveries before Christmas. If you are already very low or have run out though, this group order will not be suitable.

Rate:  £0.2880 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

With the news today we are going in tier 3 I’m really keen to try and create just a little bit of Christmas magic in Parwich. I’m hoping to create an elf trail around the village but I need your help! My plan is to create a map and it will show where the elves are hiding in the village. Ideally I would love some households in Parwich to draw and hide an elf in their garden or window displaying a letter, which when all put together spell out a Christmas word. The maps could be collected from the shop and then returned with the answer to claim a little treat.

If you would be interested in drawing, printing or creating an elf please let me know and I can start planning the route and let you know what letter you will be.

Thanks a million in advance – Lucy M lucywigley@googlemail.com, 390737 or Facebook messenger me
