DCC sent the following:

Our Derbyshire Connect service − which operates in Ashbourne, Wirksworth and their surrounding villages − will run for an extra two hours for passengers wanting to go late night Christmas shopping in Ashbourne.

The service usually runs from 7am to 7pm, Monday to Saturday. But on Friday 8 December 2017, it will operate until 9pm, to allow passengers to pick up presents and enjoy the street entertainment at the town’s annual festival.

Oil Price Going Higher

imageUpdate for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club

 

 

Although crude hovers around $64 a barrel, we have seen a surge in pre-Christmas orders for heating oil, pushing rates even higher this week as demand puts pressure on supply.

With Christmas less than a month away and delivery times of two weeks, if you require a top up before Christmas, please order this weekend. Orders are subject to weather and supply conditions. Please do check your oil levels and ensure you have allowed plenty of time for delivery. Please can you also check the condition of your tank? We have seen an increase in suppliers refusing to deliver due to tanks with cracks or in poor condition. We do not want any members to have a cold Christmas. We also expect rates to rise further the closer we get to Christmas so please do not delay if you require oil!

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

Rate: £0.4236 per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

Glamour Ball

Just wanted to say congratulations and thank you to Kirsty and her team for organising this spectacular Black Tie Ball in aid of Air Ambulance. The Hall was transformed into a dramatic, glittering atmospheric venue worthy of the occasion and The Ball attendees dressed up to match. The food was delicious, beautifully presented and served by her capable staff. The very ‘live’ band provided music that stirred most people into dancing. We had a great night raising money for a very worthy charity and hope to see it repeated again. Perhaps Kirsty will be able to post how much was raised when she has sorted everything out but meantime, thank you for a successful and enjoyable evening.

Have you seen our cat?

Update – Hamish McT has been found – his splendid tail was tightly wrapped around  brambles in the field behind Lee and Sam’s.  He was a bit shaky and needs to go to the vets shortly to have his tail checked over for a suspected break / injury. However, he can’t be too bad as he has eaten plenty and is now on the bed, fast asleep.

Thank you so much to everyone who has been in touch, looked for him and offered to help – we really appreciate it – he is a very lucky cat (and we feel so very lucky too)! And to Shaun M for releasing him from the briars!

Fireguard Wanted – for Puppies!

Dora’s puppies are now quite mobile and seemed determined to barbecue themselves crawling around the log burner. Has anyone a fire guard I could borrow for about a month?
Don’t mind buying it if necessary.
Jill. 353

Update: Jill has been lent a fireguard. Thanks to all.

Free Christmas Parking

Thanks to DDDC for the following information:

For the 10th year in a row, Derbyshire Dales District Council is encouraging people to ‘shop local’ this Christmas by introducing free parking across the district from 1st December.
The free parking from 2pm throughout December comes on top of residents’ parking concessions that allow local people to park free every day of the year up to 11am and after 4pm.
This means Dales residents have free parking for 21 hours each day over the festive period, which helps local people and local traders.
Free parking extends to midnight each day and motorists are reminded not to leave anything valuable in their vehicles as the lead up to Christmas can also be a choice time for thieves.
