This was reported this morning at 9.34:
Backhill Lane blocked.
A tree has fallen across the road on Backhill Lane just north from where is joined by Monsdale Lane. It has been passed using the verge but this may not be suitable for larger or more delicate vehicles. It has been reported to the police who should arrange for it to be cleared.

The Parish Council has been approached by residents concerned about the number of cars that are sometimes parked in this area. The Clerk undertook to look into the possibility of using a residents’ parking scheme to address these concerns. These schemes are run by the Highways Authority (Derbyshire County Council) who provide details on their website. These schemes cover relatively large areas, do not guarantee parking in any particular place and come at a significant cost to residents.They do not seem suitable for Parwich.
The owner of the Old Shop has kindly allowed the Clerk to have sight of the marketing text for its letting and the advice for guests. This is consistent with trying to avoid inconvenience for residents, although it is not possible to guarantee that it is always followed.
The road is a public space and the Parish Council does not formally have either any authority, or responsibility, to control how it is used. Should vehicles be parked illegally (e.g. either obstructing emergency vehicles or not taxed) this can be reported to the relevant authority.
The Parish Council would therefore simply like to encourage residents and visitors to park considerately and continue to attempt to resolve any problems courteously.

I have had a hen go missing recently. The breed is called Needwood Blue.
If by chance she’s joined anyone’s flock or she may be nesting in a tree or garden, could you give me a call please.
Many thanks,Alex – 390743

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
Rates edge up slightly this week as Brent Crude continues to hover around $60/$61 a barrel. However, suppliers are seeing a noticeable increase in activity this week as we all prepare for winter. Have you checked your tank levels and filled up for the winter months ahead? Delivery times are 5 to 10 working days.
TIP – Pre winter checks: With the evenings already getting much cooler, this weekend would be a good time to test your central heating to check it has not developed any gremlins over the summer.
Have you serviced your boiler recently? If not, it would also be a good time to get this booked in. Bleeding any air that has built up in the radiators is also good idea if you are able to do so, to ensure your heating is running at maximum efficiency.
Rate: £0.4600 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

Mixed fortunes on the green this week. We played our last game on a Tuesday evening at home against Matlock Bath who were keen to win in order to gain promotion to Division 1. We always have a lovely, sociable evening with them so we felt somewhat guilty when we beat them easily by 78 points to 52. However, on seeing the results the following morning for the rest of the League we were pleased to see that they were still promoted. We finished a creditable 5th in this League.
Thursday afternoon saw us playing away at Youlgrave – you may well recall that a previous writer
of these notes was convinced that there is an elephant buried under this green! Well, I can confirm that it is still there and working very much in the home team’s favour! – or maybe they just have a very good team who are top of the Division whilst we are bottom. Suffice to say we had our greatest defeat this year losing 74-153. Only 1 more game this season next Thursday at home to Hathersage.
HELP NEEDED!!!
During October we are having an end of season maintenance day (cutting hedges, painting sheds, scarifying the green etc.). We would much appreciate a few hours of help with these tasks. If you are willing to assist, please let us know via the comment on the Blog or telephone 724. Many thanks.
The date will be advised later.

Time to start your Sunday early. We have changed the children’s football from Friday to Sunday morning.
This change has come about from our work demands, but should also allow us to play on grass for longer, which is far safer.
We will start at 9am and finish around 10am giving you the rest of the day to enjoy the remainder of your weekend.
We hope this change of time will be successful and are looking forward to seeing the children there this weekend!
Reminder that young children should be accompanied by parents, we are always looking for parent helpers, parents should familiarise themselves with our rules.
Thanks
Jason, James & Charles.

Parwich Bowls Club Report
Tuesday, lovely evening, great company, green in superb condition and I don’t mean at Parwich as we were away at Chatsworth – well the green is in Edensor really. The only downside was that I discovered too late that chips were in offer in the Cavendish club. No matter, the result was what counted, we won by 81 points (maximum possible 84) to 57. A good win indeed. Only 1 game left in this League next Tuesday at home to Matlock Bath. We should finish in the perfect position, 5th or 6th I guess so no promotion this year.
Thursday afternoon was a different story. We were again 3 players short of a full team meaning that 3 of us had to play twice. Now you might think that this could be an advantage as those who played again should know how the green is performing. Against fellow strugglers Bradwell A, however, it was not the case, Bradwell played very well to win the match 132-117, our captain for the day, Fran, having our best score. Both clubs will be playing in Division 2 next year as we are propping up Division 1 with Bradwell just one place above us. Two games left in this League and whatever the results we will not be able to avoid relegation.

A fast-living, cynical London music executive (Danny Mays) heads to a remote Cornish village on a stag weekend where he’s pranked by his boss (Noel Clarke) into trying to sign a group of shanty singing fishermen (led by James Purefoy). He becomes the ultimate fish out of water as he struggles to gain the respect or enthusiasm of the unlikely boy band and their families (including Tuppence Middleton) who value friendship and community over fame and fortune. As he’s drawn deeper into the traditional way of life he’s forced to re-evaluate his own integrity and ultimately question what success really means.
Certificate 12
Guardian**** “Corny it may be –but this gentle, sweet-natured comedy has warmth and a certain X factor of likability, helped by big-hearted performances from a cast including Daniel Mays and Tuppence Middleton. It’s inspired by the true story of the Fisherman’s Friends, an all-male a capella folk singing group from Port Isaac in Cornwall who in the noughties became an unexpected hit for their authentic sea shanties.

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
Brent Crude hovers around $59 dollars a barrel this week as the oil market faces a near-term supply deficit, despite the growing cracks in the global economy and the stagnant oil demand. The combination of the OPEC Plus cuts, the worsening supply disruptions in Iran and Venezuela, and a slowdown in U.S. shale, have all helped maintain the current levels. Delivery times are 5 to 10 working days.
TIP: With the long weekend ahead, it is a good time to check your tank levels if you have not already done so recently, and is a good time to start thinking about filling up for the winter months. Suppliers start to see an increase in demand during September as we all prepare for the winter.
Rate: £0.4690 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

Update: SOLD
I bought two Armchair tickets for £40 at Northern Lights cinema in Wirksworth for this live screening of the original Fleabag on 12th Sept at 7.30, but unfortunately we now can’t go and they don’t give refunds. It is sold out now so here’s a great chance to get tickets!
Ring me on 01335 216238 or call round to Fernlea, opposite the memorial Hall, if you would like to buy them off me.Nina M
See the hilarious, award-winning, one-woman show that inspired the BBC’s hit TV series Fleabag,broadcast live to cinemas from London’s West End. Written and performed by Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag, Killing Eve) and directed by Vicky Jones, Fleabag is a rip-roaring look at some sort of woman living her sort of life.
Fleabag may seem oversexed, emotionally unfiltered and self-obsessed, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. With family and friendships under strain and a guinea pig café struggling to keep afloat, Fleabag suddenly finds herself with nothing to lose.
