With over 70% of the UK’s resident and regular migrant butterfly species in decline over recent years, we wondered which species have you spotted in your garden this year? What were they feeding on?
Thank you to David G for these lovely images.

The Derbyshire Dales DC online consultation about charging for replacement wheelie bins runs upto the 30th of September (click here to participate in their survey).
As well as the District Council consultation, the Blog Team thought it worth asking some additional questions here. (Click here to see our original post.) There have been some interesting results and comments to our poll which you can still participate in.
We feel that Derbyshire Dales offers an excellent waste collection and recycling service, which compares well with other Authorities, and they respond well to any disruption to collections. What do you think?
Replacement refuse and recycling containers cost the Council some £28,000 per year.

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
The price of oil has fallen back towards $45 a barrel after US data reports higher than expected stock levels. However the pound spikes above $1.33 today as IMF admits financial market turmoil triggered by shock Brexit vote has subsided counteracting some of the savings on the price of Crude.
The rate and offer details for our clubs group orders for this weekend are as follows:
- Rate: £0.2989 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

PARWICH CROWN GREEN BOWLS CLUB
If you think that things are tight at the top you should see what is happening in the riveting world of bowls, you couldn’t make it up if you tried. Can we make it to third in the league, will we finish top of the league the permutations are too endlessly wondrous to contemplate!
Matlock Tuesday League.
Away – Chatsworth – 30 August – 6.00pm.
Chatsworth are second bottom of the league and us only 7 points from third, piece of cake. My dad always told me there was no such thing as a certainty, how right he was. The wonderful Edith and Rick, fresh from their magnificent win in the 2016 Tarmac Trophy tournament, were our only winners, 21 – 10. I keep telling you they are good. Harry B and Sue A came up short by the smallest of margins, losing 20 – 21. Dawn A and Tony A also more than held their own losing by 21 – 17. With a further loss in the last game the result was Chatsworth 73, Parwich 70. Not sure if 70 points will even be enough to keep us in sixth place, let alone push us up a place or two. Only one more match left to see if we can climb up a bit. As only the first two get promoted to the higher division our chance are slim, but we are still battling on.
- LAST MATCH – Home – Ashwood Park – 6 September – 5.45pm.
Matlock Thursday League.
With last week’s match a wash out we had to play twice this week, could we cope with the pressure!
Away – Bradwell – 31 August – 1.45.
We needed to get off to a good start in order to keep us in second place in the league. Unfortunately we conspired to lose all three doubles very well, Bradwell 63, Parwich 37. Could the singles get us out of the hole we managed to fall in, you bet they could. We won 5 out of the 6 games and only lost the sixth by three points, Bradwell 67, Parwich 87. Again you need your calculators handy to work out that this was not quite enough to win. Final score Bradwell 130, Parwich 124.The top of the league, Bakewell, were now 56 points ahead of us. Our next opponents, Bakewell!!
Home – Bakewell – 1 September – 1.45.
Keep telling you, you should have been there; you could have cut the tension with a knife. Because of injuries and holidays we only had ten players. Inspired captaincy in selecting who should play which games was needed and who was to play twice. Did I tell you our captain, Tony A, is inspired? Not only did we win all three doubles games but we won 63 points to 38. Could we keep up the phenomenally brilliant play in the singles? With only one game to play we had won the first 5 games. Rick our ever faithful great bowler would do the job. Horror of horrors Rick lost. The result was passed to the world doping agency and all was found to be in order (Russian testers I think). The match scrutinisers got their heads together. And verified that the final score was (Can you feel the tension its worse than waiting for the synchronised swimming results) Parwich 147, Bakewell 88, a win by 59 points. This means that we have gone into CHAMPIONSHIP PLACE! by three points. What a disaster, we will be promoted next year to face the likes of illustrious teams, such as Tideswell and Hazelwood! Only one more match to go. (Bet we blow it, or could tiny Parwich become Crown Green bowls Leicester City?).
- LAST MATCH – Away – Matlock Bath – 8 September – 1.45pm
