Based on Richard Osman’s international bestselling novel of the same name, The Thursday Murder Club follows four irrepressible retirees — Elizabeth (Helen Mirren), Ron (Pierce Brosnan), Ibrahim (Ben Kingsley) and Joyce (Celia Imrie) — who spend their time solving cold case murders for fun. When an unexplained death occurs on their own doorstep, their casual sleuthing takes a thrilling turn as they find themselves with a real whodunit on their hands.

Update 4/9 Reunited with owner

This very friendly cat turned up at my backdoor at Rookery House yesterday and has been here all day in the rain. He or she is very friendly, wearing a chip on the collar( presumably to open a cat flap) and looks quite young.

In case anyone is looking for her, she is still  in the garden  and keeps coming to my backdoor.

Just to let you know this coming Sunday (Sept 7^th ) at about 3pm, all mobile phones in Britain on 4G and 5G networks will vibrate and emit a siren for up to 10 seconds, even if they are set to silent mode.

The phones will display the message below confirming that the alert is a drill

If you wish to avoid the alert, iPhone users should go to settings, search for “Emergency Alerts”, and turn off “Severe and Emergency Alerts”.

Android users can do the same, also searching for “Emergency Alerts” in settings and switching off “Severe and Emergency Alerts”.

A spokesman said: “Theatres are updating their pre-show announcements to remind audiences to turn phones off completely, helping to minimise disruption.

The AA, meanwhile, recommended that drivers familiarise themselves with the alert sound and vibration and do not interact with the message until they have stopped in a safe place with their engines switched off.

“On the day, drivers should simply stay calm and focus on the road. As always, only check your phone when you’re parked safely with the engine turned off.”

Thanks to MalcolmH for sharing this information

Thank you very much to everyone who helped with, and supported our event this year.

Due to the success of the event, we have been able to donate £520.59 to St Peter’s Church.

The donation is to go towards fund raising for a new Memorial Garden for the burying of ashes in the churchyard.

We plan to hold another Flower Festival next year on Sunday 19 July 2026.

Thanks again to everyone involved!

Delia

I have been in contact with O2 via their Facebook site messaging service  https://www.facebook.com/o2uk/ regarding our failed mobile signal, and they have escalated my complaint.

The social media site is the best way to contact O2 (for anything); it appears to be staffed by English people and they reply promptly. Phoning O2 is hopeless…

How long has the service been unavailable? I think at least since the 8^th August.

There has been no activity at the mobile mast site at Brook Close Farm.

I suggest as many people as possible complain to O2 via Facebook to try and get them to do something.  I had a message saying that they had planned work to be done on the 13^th and service would be restored by that evening…

UPDATED: 19/08 4pm

I have just had a further update from O2 – for the blog-

“Our engineers have identified a fault on the mast and have ordered the parts”

We found a Rayban style pair of sunglasses in the fields between the Bradbury’s farm and Parwich Lees. Possibly lost by a PP5 runner?

There is a fire that was lit yesterday in the field to the right of White Park, Alsop Road.  It is still smouldering. In this hot weather, I hope it is out completely.

Do you know what your Parish Council does for the village?

Maybe you think that the Council should have done more, less or something differently.

Even if you thought it was just right – Somebody had to do it!

Good, bad or indifferent, the Council only does anything because there are village residents willing to take a turn at being councillors.

Without them the village would lose control of it’s income and expenditure. This would leave responsibility for things such as Parsons Croft, the Village Playgrounds and the Village Greens with Derbyshire Dales District Council or Derbyshire County Council.

There are currently two vacancies on the Parish Council so we need more councillors.

Could you be one of them?

For more information please see this news item on the council’s website.

WE MADE IT 🎉🎉. Wakes 2025 you have been awesome. What a week in the sun! It’s been action packed and we are completely exhausted but happy to meet so many friends old and new. We are a truly special village, with some special people and we need to try and maintain that as long as possible.

Wakes would not be possible without the help and support from so many volunteers (Roger, Roy and David to name just a few!), the Carnival and Recreation Committee, the Oddfellows, Kirsty, Jane,Tom 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 2026.

Signing off for now with a few of my favourite pictures (credit to Phil Cooke for some of them)….
