Well a holiday hunt! As many of us should be on holiday next week and we don’t really need an excuse to brighten up the village and make us smile how do people fancy creating their own holiday pictures for us all to find . Whether it be a picture of an ice cream 🍦, bucket and spade or an awesome sand castle – the brighter the better. Hunt starting from this Saturday – we can’t wait to see your creations.

I have been strolling around the village for about five years now and only discovered these steps a few days ago. Although overgrown, there are steps behind the undergrowth. Can anyone guess where they are and let me(us) know of any history

Bottle of wine for the first right answer

Kind regards

This village never ceases to amaze me – you are all lovely people and the rainbows and teddies have brought such joy over the past couple of weeks. So for Easter week please can we do just one more!!

I was thinking if we could create the biggest village Easter hunt the kids have ever seen so hide pictures of eggs, bunnies or anything Easter related then we can all have fun finding them.

Then finally email us photos of your Easter creations to parwich@hotmail.com or lucywigley@googlemail.com and the best pictures will win an Easter prize. We will have a prize for under 7’s, 7-15 yr olds and finally 15 and over so everyone can get involved (Liz E I’m sure your dying to send us some 😀). Photos to be sent by Monday 13th April.

Happy Hunting

Hopefully you are busy creating your own bears. I just wanted to share mine and Dougie’s creation I’m not sure if it belongs in the Tate Gallery or some horror movie!

Can’t wait to find yours soon

Hey Lucy we’re ready and waiting!

I am an elderly bear so I am looking out for you from my bedroom window

My polar bear (an Ursus maritimus) is quite enjoying himself this week, spotting children as they walk past. My daughter called him ‘Boris’, when she won him at a funfair many years ago, but I have to say that Boris-the-Bear preens himself much better, regularly combing his fur/hair,  than the human Boris (Homo sapiens). It’s a bit cold in the garage window, but he’s quite used to that.  Boris-the-Bear asked me to thank Lucy M for the chance to be brought out of mothballs for a bit.

Look what we found today – has anyone else seen ‘Pooh’

Firstly I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone in the village for putting rainbows on display (special thanks to Rosie W for Dods Hill and Lucy B for the Green) it really made my kids (and mine!) week. We have done a rainbow hunt every single day!!

So to carry it on how about from Monday we create a bear hunt? if you could draw your best teddy bears or even put a real teddy bear out so we can find it, it will hopefully carry on spreading some joy in these difficult times.

In these uncertain times how about a bit of light relief?? I’ve just seen a post on Facebook where neighbourhoods are drawing and putting up pictures of rainbows in their windows for local children to find on a rainbow treasure hunt. As a mother of two young children looking for some activities in the village to keep my kids entertained how about it? All you need to do is draw a picture of a rainbow and stick it in your window next week ready for us and others to spot.

Thanks in rainbow hopefulness

We will be having our cash and carry delivery on Thursday if there is anything anyone in Parwich needs or are struggling to get then let us know by wednesday 12 pm and if it’s available we can pop it on the order.
