Apples everywhere …
During daytime I put a box with apples out at the bottom of the drive near Creamery Green. Please, please help yourselves! Some are perfect, others have the odd blemish.
Here is my favourite recipe for Dutch Apple Pie:
175 g margarine
300 g plain flour
a pinch of salt
3 tsp baking powder
100g caster sugar
1 egg
Line the bottom of a spring form (10 inch) with baking paper, mix the ingredients and line bottom & sides of the form with the mixture (you’ll need plenty of flour on your hands to stop the mixture from sticking to your hands).
Approx. 600-700 grams of peeled, cored and sliced cooking apples. Mix with some sugar, lemon juice and grated zest, sultanas and cinnamon. Mix. Push slices into inside of the pastry rim for firmness and use the rest to fill. Bake at approx. 170 C for approx. 30-40 minutes.
60 g granulated sugar
60 g margarine
60 g sliced almonds
Breadcrumbs (white – 2 slices)
Vanilla essence (a few drops)
Cinnamon
Mix, add as topping once the pastry rim starts to go brown. Bake for a further 10 minutes until golden brown.

The van will be in the village (as close to Parsons Croft as I can safely be) on the 5th from 6 – 7, then I’ll be a shadowy figure toasting one side at the bonfire!

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
Oil prices continue to fall, below $78 a barrel today, on fears of a slowdown in global growth and oil demand going forward, amid unstable emerging markets , rising dollar, trade wars, and tariffs all weighing on oil demand growth expectations. Rising U.S. inventories have also further dampened the mood. However, with the pound falling further against the dollar, any drop in the price of crude has been offset with the cost of kerosene similar to last week.
With the nights now much colder, please order early and allow plenty of time for delivery. If you are low on oil then this order may not be suitable. Typical estimated delivery time frames are between 7 to 10 days working days.
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: £0.5250 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

We have received the following
Due to popular demand, we’re running a second British Legion bike ride, with a variation to the route we did last time. It’ll be 9 miles with a mixture of roads and trails, leaving at finishing at The Legion.
The start time is 2pm, but remember that clocks go back Saturday night/ Sunday morning! The route is attached but as before, we’ll leave in convoy and when we get back, they’ll be hot food available.
It’s due to be a bit chilly on Sunday, so wrap up warm and we’ll see you there!
Details of the route and the a map follow – please click on either to enlarge.

A bit belatedly this month, we will be updating the Parwich.org Diary page this weekend, so if you have any Alsop, Ballidon, Parwich or Pikehall events (November and December) that you want to go in the Diary in time to be included in the Peak Five Church Magazine’s November issue please send them in by Saturday (27th of October).
Including our Diary in the Church magazine is important as it helps you reach some of those who are not on-line.
Please send Diary information to parwich@hotmail.co.uk or leave me a message on tel. 287.
Thank you, Peter

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
Oil prices fell to a one-month low on Wednesday, pushed down by a bearish report from the U.S. Energy Information Administration that showed a large increase in crude inventories. Looks like the U.S. are filling up for the winter too!
Despite this it will come as no surprise that the rate we have pay for our oil has not come down!
Please order early and allow plenty of time for delivery. If you are low on oil then this order may not be suitable. Typical estimated delivery time frames are between 7 to 10 days working days.
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.

Thank you to everyone so far for starting to build a great fire for the Village Bonfire but please can we remind you not to put mattresses, sofas, or leave screws/nails in wood as it is potentially very dangerous. Can whoever has put the mattress on there kindly come and remove it.
Thank you
