PARWICH CROWN GREEN BOWLS CLUB
It has been so nice playing bowls over the past few weeks the weather has been so good to us, the bowls hasn’t been bad either.
Tuesday League.
Home – Wirksworth – 5 June – 6.00pm
We always have a tight match against Wirksworth, they are a much bigger club than us, but we seem to be able to hold our own. For once Rick wasn’t playing with Edith but it did not make a lot of difference with Dot stepping up to the mark. They meandered to a win 21 – 17. Not so good for Dennis E and Sue A who try as they did could not get to grips with the Wirksworth pair losing 7 – 21. Fortunately Pat and John B managed, I know not how, to reverse the result by winning 21 – 7. Did anybody actually see if the had opponents? Finally it was down to Clara E and Tony A to bring home the bacon. Talk about a nail biter, they won on the last end 21 – 20. What a pair. Final score Parwich 70, Wirksworth 65.
Believe it or not dear reader this result puts us top of the division! Can we stay there??
Next match – Away – Matlock Golf Club – 12 June – 6.00pm.
Thursday Friendly League.
Home – Chatsworth A – 7 June – 1.45pm.
Top of the table clash today. Chatsworth are top of the division and Parwich were third or fourth. How will we do? If the doubles pairs were anything to go by, not very well. We unfortunately we did not win a game. Our best result was Clara E and Liz H losing against Chatsworth’s best pair 21 – 14. A really good effort.
We needed to play really well to make up the 34 point deficit after the doubles and well we did play. John H led the way with a win 15 – 3, followed by Dawn, Edith and Sue A winning 6, 9, and 11 respectively. Our other two singles players although losing made good scores also. Would we have done enough to make up the score? Although we more than halved the deficit to 13 it was not enough so we came second, Chatsworth 122, Parwich 109. I think this defeat will drop us down a few places.
Next Match – Home – Chatsworth B – 14 June – 1.45pm

We are not alone in Parwich ( NHS Emergency System held in high esteem)
Suffering a Wasp attack and prone to Anaphalaxis the events below unfolded Tuesday afternoon.
On receiving the sting, the administration of a Epipen has to be actioned followed by a request for an ambulance.
The immediately received call by the operator once establishing the service required, actioned the appropriate call out , they stayed on the phone asking and giving information only finishing the call once a member of the response team arrive this being a member of the Parwich first responder to monitor the situation .
Soon afterward the paramedic arrived to take over and monitor my health. some 20 minutes later the Ambulance arrived.
Having established I was stable but with consultation with my G.P. they relinquished their responsibility and left.
A secondary reaction occured but was soon controlled by my G.P. on an emergency appointment at the locally surgery.
The above agency carried out their work as a cohesive team , fast, efficient and professional.
THEREFORE WE ARE NOT ALONE

PARWICH CROWN GREEN BOWLS CLUB
Can’t remember a better winning week for our bowls club. We nearly got to perfection in terms of scoring, not sure about the look of us though!
Tuesday League.
Away – Bakewell – 29 May – 6.00pm
As you may recall Bakewell’s green is very narrow and thin. Evidently there are no hard and fast rules on size other than it should be between 30 – 60 yards in old money. Wouldn’t want to play on the 60 yard green though, you would need to be in the world’s strong man/woman category. Anyway what ever the size we played a blinder. Captain Dawn and Frances strutting their stuff winning 21 – 7. Harry and Sue storming home 21 – 9. Even Tony and John B managed a win 21 – 17. Rick and Edith obviously wanted to get as many ‘ends’ as possible, each pair winning one shot at a time. They eventually won 21 – 15. A full house for Parwich 84, Bakewell 48. We were second in the division so this should keep us up there.
Next match – Home – Wirksworth – 5 June – 6.00pm.
Thursday Friendly League.
Home – Matlock Park – 31 May – 1.45pm.
Debut appearance for Stuart this week and what a debut it was. Playing with Frances (she can be bossy) they were trailing 8 nil, but what a team they made in the end winning 21 – 16. Trust me it will not be this easy every week. Dennis and Clara also had what must be one of their best ever wins 21 – 3. What a result. Last but most certainly not least Ian and Liz completed a hat trick of wins 21 – 15. What a start, Parwich 64, Matlock 34.
On to the singles and although we had a couple of players missing the outcome was never in doubt. We won 5 out of the 6 games dropping only 3 points. Parwich 87, Matlock 67. Final score Parwich 150, Matlock 101, only 3 off the maximum. We were about third or fourth in the division so this should keep us up there.
Next Match – Away – Chatsworth – 7 June – 1.45pm.

The government has launched a review into the UK’s national parks and areas of outstanding natural beauty (AONBs).
Nearly 70 years after the country’s national parks were first established, aimed at opening up the countryside and allowing more people to connect with nature, DEFRA announced on Saturday that an independent panel will look at how these “iconic landscapes” meet the UK’s needs in the 21st century.
The review will explore how access to parks can be improved, how those who live and work in them can be better supported and their role in growing the rural economy. In addition; part of the review will look at whether there is scope for the current network of 34 AONBs and 10 national parks to expand.

I have two Rowan trees looking for a new home. They are 8 to 10 feet tall with a nice upright shape and should grow to about 15 feet. They have creamy white flowers to come shortly and pale pink berries which last all winter.I made a mistake in my planting scheme and they are now surplus to requirements. They were potted up in March and could do with getting into the ground asap.Free to a good home or donations to the Legion garden (plants or cash) would be welcome in exchange.Nina Martin at Fernlea (opposite memorial hall)
These have now found a new home

Update on Leo.
Leo came home this morning in good health, little thin but happy.
Thank you for everyone for looking out for him over the past two weeks we are very grateful!
Thank you the Brett Family
Name: Leo
Hasn’t been home since Friday 25th of May, which is completely out of his character.
•He is a two year old, grey tabby cat.
•He has four white socks and is extremely friendly.
•He has no collar but is microchipped
•We are very worried about him because he has never gone missing before. He never really ranges too far from 3 Sycamore Cottages, but he does travel in all directions.
•Please can you check sheds, buildings or outhouses (in case he has been locked in).
•If you see him or know of his whereabouts please contact Eva Brett on 01335 390730/ 07903 269190. Even if it is not good news, please get in contact.
Thank you very much.
Thank you
The Brett Family

Friday football update
Hi all
I just wanted to update the village on where we are up to with Friday football and request your help.
Friday football continues to go very well. Each week we probably have 20+ children come… most of which are older children, however we have around 4-6 children under 7 years these children are a little small and too young to join the larger children for the main game and therefore they play their own game.
In terms of current support it’s just myself and James Farrar. My current work commitments mean that I am not available every week and rely very heavily on James. Without James’s dedication to the Friday football their would be no Friday football. Also note James has the necessary CRB checks to allow him to work with children.
Our club finances are good… we continue to be very careful how we spend your/our money, the main costs are new balls damaged by the hawthorns located behind the goals.
We will probably take a couple of weeks break over the summer holiday period to recharge our batteries we will post this on the blog nearer the time.
YOUR HELP
As stated above the Friday Football is currently James and myself… we desperately need additional helpers. These people do not need to have any football skills at all! They would be there to watch over and support the young children… ideally this should be the parents of the young children, but we would like others to help James or myself especially when one of us are unavailable. Our main interest is to safe guard the children and ensure they have a good time (and get them off their PlayStations!!!).
Our commitment and dedication to the Friday football hasn’t changed but we do need more help. If we are unable to get this extra help then we may need to restrict Friday football to the older children only, this is not something we would like to do.
Finally I take this opportunity to thank James for his continued time, dedication and support to the Friday football group…..
If you think you can help please get in touch…. thank you
Jason J

This notice is a call out to irresponsible dog owners.
Tonight at Friday football we were unfortunate to find that an irresponsible dog owner had allowed their dog to use the goal area as a toilet…
Dog fouling is not a criminal offence, but not picking up your dogs mess is!..
I have informed the Parish Council of this matter and know that we will have their support to eradicate this disgusting behaviour.
I am sure that most people know that handling dog faeces can cause irreversible blindness in young children, I therefore ask all dog owners who use Parsons Croft to exercise their dogs… please, please, please exercise them away from the football pitch and away from the pavilion…. and pick up!
Thank you for your support
Jason
