Set on a remote island off the west coast of Ireland, THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN follows lifelong friends Pádraic and Colm, who find themselves at an impasse when Colm unexpectedly puts an end to their friendship. A stunned Pádraic, aided by his sister Siobhán and troubled young islander Dominic, endeavours to repair the relationship, refusing to take no for an answer. But Pádraic’s repeated efforts only strengthen his former friend’s resolve and when Colm delivers a desperate ultimatum, events swiftly escalate, with shocking consequences.

Gazebo (loan) wanted…

Does anyone have a gazebo that they would be willing to loan to the Cricket Club for the Trent Bridge match on Sunday September 24th, to provide temporary changing facilities to our guests from Nottingham?

Ideally it would need at least 2 sides that can be fitted for privacy.

Its loan will be much appreciated – erection of it more so….

Many Thanks

Village show

Knob Hall changing back to Old Hall

We have decided to take Knob Hall back to its original name of Old Hall. 

It enjoyed this name until it became an industrial building in 1900 namely, the Parwich Creamery. When the Creamery closed in 1925, it became Knob Hall.

Whilst the actual reason for renaming the building Knob Hall has been lost in the mists of time, we believe it came about by the addition of knob finials on each of the gable ends.

Compost bin

BT Scam Call

We had a call from someone claiming to be from BT, they had a lot of information i.e. our BT account number, they sent a text to Judith’s phone with a pin number.   They knew when our last bill was and for how much.  They said there was unusual activity around our Broadband and asked us to log in so they could show us. We did and then they asked us to look into other accounts to see if we’d been hacked i.e. our Amazon account. Low and behold a fraudulent activity was there!  Well we thought it was there, when in fact, they “supposed BT” had changed / altered the screen we were looking at. To make a very long story short we cut the call and then did the usual, called the bank, changed Amazon password, logged the scam with BT and changed our BT password.  

BT said they NEVER call their customers unless they have been requested to i.e. you, the customer rings them and they are responding to your request. If you get a call from BT out of the blue – hang up, it’s a scam.

The aim of the survey is to collect residents’ overall views and perceptions of the council in order to track our progress and gather regular feedback. This will enable us to compare with previous results from 2022 and compare with national trends over the short and long term.

We would therefore be grateful if you could take 5 mins to fill out this short survey. The survey will be open until midnight on Wednesday 16th August 2023.

Alternatively, please click on this link to go to the survey: www.derbyshire.gov.uk/yourvoice2023
