Wanted Milk Containers

Another plea for empty, clean milk containers please. The cows are going at the end of July so I won’t be begging for much longer!

Thanks to everyone who has dropped off containers over the last few weeks.

PARWICH CROWN GREEN BOWLS CLUB

Quite a rollercoaster of a ride this season one week we are playing really well and the next week we are being well beaten. This week unfortunately it’s the latter. However we did try against teams a lot higher than us in the league. The fact that we are bottom of the Thursday league and everybody is higher than us is immaterial!

Matlock Tuesday bowls league.
Away – Matlock Park – 7 July – 6.30pm.

Back to Matlock again this week. Matlock are a very safe second in the league and almost certain to be promoted, we on the other hand had slipped on ‘goal’ difference to fifth, which for us would be a good place to finish. The green is in the riverside park in Matlock and the public stop and gaze at the goings on on the green, particularly the visitors from down south who play the ‘other’ form of bowls. All of this verbiage is to avoid letting you know we lost 77 – 58. There were a couple of good Parwich games, Rick and Edith coming back from 10 nil down to win 21 – 14. What a gem of a pair they are. Similarly Pat and John B down 15 – 5 coming back to lose 21 – 15. Not bad really. Our fifth place is in jeopardy after this result though.

  • Next match- Home – Wirksworth – 14 July – 6.30pm.

Matlock Thursday Friendly League.
Away – Bradwell – 16 July – 1.45pm.

The weather was really good for the match, which is about all you can say. Try as we may we lost the three doubles games leaving us trailing 63 – 32. We shared the six singles three each with Rick M leading the way winning 15 – 4. John B and Edith also coming on strong with good wins. Unfortunately these wins were not enough to get us anywhere near Bradwell. The score for the singles was 74 – 73 to Bradwell, giving a final score of 137 – 105. So we will still be propping up the league. We like the lower league anyway!

  • Next match – Home – Hazelwood – 16 July – 1.45pm.

ET visited Parwich Wakes

Apologies for the delay in posting these photos by David G submitted last Thursday, but we had to wait for approval from the MOD and NASA before posting:

NB: MOD (Master OddFellow Drinkers) and NASA (National Agency Supping Alcohol) are certain that this is an unidentified flying object. One in ten Californians have been abducted by aliens, what is more worrying: what it says about Calinornians or what it says about aliens? What are your thoughts on what was ET’s favourite event at this year’s Wakes?

Saturday 5th December – Temari Balls for Christmas
http://www.threadsworkshops.co.uk/make-a-temari-ball-for-beginners.html

I know it is early, but the reason for advertising now, is that I only have 2 places left on the Stumpwork workshop and 4 places on the Temari ball one. Cost is £39 per place including materials and home-made refreshments. I’ve inserted links above to the relevant pages on my website with more details.

Many thanks!

Pulsating Parwich

PARWICH CROWN GREEN BOWLS CLUB

Having had pulverised Parwich last week we had pulsating Parwich, thankfully, this week. We needed to do well in the Tuesday league and even better in the Thursday league, so read on to excite your bowling senses!

Matlock Tuesday bowls league.
Away – Matlock Bath – 30 June – 6.30pm.

As you may recall this green is shaped like a fifty pence piece and has all sorts of dips and humps. In terms of league position we are marginally ahead of them. Of the four games in the match we managed to win three. The magical Edith and Rick sorted out their opponents 21 – 11. Dawn, playing with John B again (he needs his hand held bless him) came back again from the brink of defeat to snatch a win 21 -20. To put the icing on the cake Harry B and Val K won 21 – 18. Unfortunately Dennis and Clara E couldn’t manage a win, but put up a great fight against a very good pair. The final result was a Parwich win 73 – 70. This will keep us slightly ahead of Matlock and may even keep us in our current fourth position in the league. Next week we are playing a team trying for promotion so it will be a hard match.

  • Next match- Away – Matlock Park – 7 July – 6.30pm.

Matlock Thursday Friendly League.
Home – Youlgrave – 2 July – 1.45pm.

Those of you who read this stuff may well recall the elephant buried under Youlgrave’s  green, well we needed to play at our absolute best on our green to overturn the very poor result on that green. We didn’t do too badly. We tried really well in the doubles with Liz H and Harry B doing their stuff to win 21 – 11. Unfortunately this was our only win, but we got close. 53 to 46 in favour of Youlgrave. The maximum you can score in the six singles is 90, we only got 89! Rick M and John B winning to 3 and 6. The final score was 135 – 113 to Parwich somewhat easing our dismal showing on their green. We are currently bottom of the league and I fear that even after this great win we will still be holding everybody up.

  • Next match – Away – Bradwell – 9 July – 1.45pm.

This week we will be having a Club match on Sunday at 2.00 pm. Come and have a look.

Good tea and cake to die for!!

Record Day @ parwich.org

Yesterday saw the previous record of the number of hits (‘page views’) on the Blog smashed after two years. Yesterday we recorded 8,221 hits, around 2,000 more than the previous record.

Wakes is always our busiest week, with particular interest in the photographs. Photographs from a new contributor, Andy G, have proved popular, with Rob Laycock leaving the following comment:

These are superb photos, even the one of me taking picture at the hall is one of the better shots taken of me!

It was posted on one of the photos in the ‘A New Perspective‘ of Wakes Saturday (comments left on individual photos don’t appear in the list of recent comments, but we are more than happy to highlight it here).

Thank you for all the support from the community. It is your contributions that make the Blog.

Have you booked?
