Sheep Out

I’ve seen this pair wandering round the village since Monday and they have just been spotted trying to get to the veg in my garden.  I suggest the owner rounds them up because if they’re try it again, they’re likely to be joining it on my plate!

Thank you

Plant Sale Continues

Thank you to all who bought plants last week, just over £50 went to the Carnival & Recreation Committee. This week proceeds will go to Parwich Church. There are still a range of herbaceous plants, shrubs, kitchen garden plants and others, including a large forsythia and a large dogwood which has bright red stems in winter.

If no one is about help yourself to the plants at the gate for Church Farm in Creamery Lane and leave what you think is a fair price in the honesty box. Everything must go.

Thank you…

It’s the end of another very hot, sunny and successful Wakes. We hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did. We really want to keep these events going and we can’t do it without you so a big THANK YOU from the Carnival and Recreation Committee to everyone who helped out and joined in. Especially those who gave up so much of their spare time to keep everything going – you know who you are.

If you have any suggestions for next Wakes or a village event please get in touch with us at lucywigley@googlemail.com. We would also really like new members to join our small Committee so if you are interested just drop me an email or have a chat with one of the Committee members.

Here’s till next time…..

Carnival and Recreation Committee

Climbing Frame Location

We have received the following from the Parish Council

At the least Parish Council meeting the purchase of a new climbing frame was approved and the order has been placed.

During Wakes week it was brought to the Council’s attention that the proposed location affected the access to parts of the green for funfair rides this year.

The proposed location provided ample width to pass between the climbing frame and the brook. However the operators of the funfair were concerned that this route might be over ground which sloped too much for their vehicles to pass safely.

The suppliers of the climbing frame have very kindly offered an alternative layout which would overcome this problem. The play elements incorporated in the modular design of the climbing frame are exactly the same.

In order that the Council can formally choose one of the layouts, or consider other ideas, an extraordinary meeting will be held on the green at 7:30 on Thursday 12th July.

As with all Parish Council meetings members of the public are welcome.

Further information is available by using these links.

Oil Price Stays High

imageUpdate for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club

Rates this summer are round 40% higher than the same time last year. This is due in main to the cost of crude oil which remains in the high $70’s this week and means 500 litres is likely to cost £60 to £70 more this year than last. We are being advised that rates could stay at these levels for some time and in fact may increase further with all the global and political volatility at the moment coupled with increased demand for fuels. Now may therefore be a good time for the Summer Fill!

We have secured a rate and our clubs group oil order terms for this weekend are as follows:

Rate:  £0.4788 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

Bowls Match Report

And still we haven’t got wet yet. No point in referring to ‘greens’ they are long gone. Even clubs who have automatic watering systems are struggling because as soon as the water goes on it is evaporated. At least its the same for everybody.

Tuesday League.

Away – Bradwell – 3 July – 6.00pm

A case in point about it being a great leveller was our match against Bradwell. They have not had a very good season so far and were virtually bottom of the league. We on the other hand were second in the division. That counts for nothing at the moment. Dennis and Clara E tried really hard, but still came second 21 – 10. This was somewhat countered by Pat and John B winning 21 – 12. Dawn, playing with Harry B this week, also won 21 – 17. Finally to put the icing on the cake for us, Rick and Edith just needed to win. Not on this patch they didn’t. Try as they might they could not win ‘ends’. The opposition played a blinder. Small consolation was that they did get double figures, just. Final score Bradwell 71, Parwich 63. Bradwell will probably go up a bit. We will certainly fall.

Next match – Away – Chatsworth – 10 July – 6.00pm

Thursday Friendly League.

Home – Bradwell – 5 July – 1.45pm.

Bradwell again in this league. They are doing a bit better here and our ‘green’ is just as slick as anybodies. Dennis E continues his impressive record this time playing with Liz H. They romped home 21 – 3. Dennis is becoming a real ‘green’ bandit. Clara E and John H also managed to master the tricky conditions and won 21 – 15. Unfortunately we could not get a hat trick as Ian J and Audrey B lost against Bradwells best pair. However because of Dennis and Liz’s heroic efforts we held a slender 50 – 39 lead after the doubles.

We shared the singles 3 apiece with Keith B showing everybody how to play on an ice rink. He sauntered in 15 – 2. Although we only won two other singles our losing players managed to score well and John H playing twice because of too few players only just lost on the final end. Final score Parwich 124, Bradwell 102.

What is going to happen next week when we play on ‘the elephant buried under the green’, green. Your thoughts will be very much needed!

Next Match – Away – Youlgrave – 12 July – 1.45pm.

Parwich Strongest Men and Women

A great night at the Sycamore Inn. The winner of the men’s was Danny Mycock from Waterhouses and the ladies winner was our very own super strong Rachel Cooper. Well done to everyone who took part. Thank you to Rod Kirkpatrick for the great photos you can see lots more on Midlands News and Stunning Views Facebook page

We just don’t know… but every second counts.

It’s great to see so many people enjoying Wakes tonight, but please spare a thought for anyone requiring urgent assistance.
It was difficult for me to drive through the many parked cars tonight due to inconsiderate parking.
An ambulance would struggle and a fire engine could not get through.
This made me think tonight as I was due to join Sue responding for the ambulance service.
Please consider parking when publicising or arranging any large scale events.
Thank you
