Hill Race Results Summary 2013
Posted in Sport, Wakes, Young people on Thursday July 4, 2013| Leave a Comment »
An excellent evening, despite the unreliable weather, with an increased number of entrants in the Junior Race, and some excellent performances from local youngsters. There was a reduced number of runners in the main Senior Race, which was won by C Patterson in 18min 54sec, slower than his winning time last year (this was over a different course because of the very wet conditions), but faster by 5sec than the 2011 winning time over the same course.
The quickest home in the Junior Race was D Evans in 12min 32sec, faster than his winning time of 13min 12sec last year.
Here are the winners in the various categories: (more…)

New Band in Parwich
Posted in 2012, Music, Photography, Posts of Note, Young people on Friday October 5, 2012| 1 Comment »
Thank you to Jane B for spotting this new musical phenomenon:
Four youngsters from Parwich could be the latest band to emerge from this small village, which already has a history of launching successful new musicians. The four, who still have to come up with a band name were heard to be practising on the corner of Croft Avenue and Creamery Lane, singing “We will, we will rock you”, using improvised instruments.
Eat your heart out Queen!
