We will be updating the Parwich.org Diary page next weekend, so if you have any Alsop, Ballidon, Parwich or Pikehall events (December, January and February) that you want to go in the Diary in time to be included in the Peak Five Church Magazine’s December/January issue please send them in by Saturday (24th November). Please note this issue covers two months, so there will not be another one out until February 2019.
Including our Diary in the Church magazine is important as it helps you reach some of those who are not on-line. Also any January and February events would be particularly helpful.
Please send Diary information to parwich@hotmail.co.uk or leave me a message on tel. 287.
Thank you, Peter

One space only left for a day’s volunteering on Tuesday 27 November
The History Society has been told of an interesting find which has taken place in the parish of Parwich. At the moment the nature of the find and it’s location have not been disclosed. The Peak District National Park Authority is organising a 5 day excavation of a trench in the vicinity of the find at the end of the month and have offered 10 day spaces to the History Society / village (2 for each of the 5 days). 6 of these have already been filled at our AGM leaving 4 day spaces for other volunteers.
If you are interested in volunteering for a day’s excavation you will need to be reasonably fit and healthy, able to do a full day and walk to the site carrying tools as well as have suitable footwear and clothing. If you are interested contact me on 191 by the end of Thursday 15 November. If we are oversubscribed, priority will be given to History Society members.

Bonfire Radicals area blend of gorgeous Celtic Folk, dynamic eastern European jazz-swing and punchy world beats. Armed with emotive vocals, melodic classical recorders and woodwind, electrifying fiddle and a tight, rocking rhythm section, theirs is a boldly, at times gloriously chaotic, live stage show.’

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
With just over six weeks to Christmas, please do check your tank levels. If you have not already filled up for the year or for Christmas, I would highly recommend doing so before the surge in pre-Christmas orders and seasonal rates cut in.
The good news is a renewed supply glut caused by surging U.S. shale production, plus higher output from Russia, Saudi Arabia, and other OPEC members, has more than offset the declines from Iran. Inventories climbed sharply in the U.S. and shale production has exceeded expectations leading to another fall in the price of crude this week which dropped below $70 a barrel today, the lowest since April.
TIP : Please order early and allow plenty of time for delivery. I recommend ordering oil when you have either 35/40% left in your tanks or six weeks supply in winter conditions. This helps ensure you do not run out and also ensures sludge and water at the bottom of the tank is not stirred up when new fuel is added
Therefore please order early and allow plenty of time for delivery. If you are low on oil then this order may not be suitable. Typical estim
You can help reduce harmful diesel emissions, CO2, danger and damage on our roads and to our villages by joining in with our group orders. In doing so we can reduce the number of heavy goods trucks driving through our towns and villages. We have secured a rate and our clubs group oil order terms for this weekend are as follows:
Rate: £0.4999 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])
