Undelivered Amazon Parcels

I have heard that several parcels from Amazon have gone missing in the village recently. This has also happened to me this week.
I was sent a notification that an Amazon parcel had been delivered to me, that it had been handed to the house owner.  No such parcel had arrived so I contacted the Amazon customer services who are now sending a replacement.  If everyone who has not received their Amazon order makes a similar complaint then Amazon may be able to detect the problem. Could you pass the word around?

Thanks,
Alice S

More Parcel Mystery

Not sure if other posters had any look tracking their missing parcels but I’ve had a few delivered today (Thursday) but I have one that says its been left but its not here. It was delivered by royal mail this afternoon at 3.15 and was a Mark’s and Spencer parcel. Has anyone had any left that isn’t theirs? I’m on Lenscliffe by the school. 
Please call 390111
Thanks Vicky T

Another Missing Parcel

Bit of a long shot, but wondering if anyone got a Box of beer delivered yesterday in error?From Beer 52.
Delivered around 11am to a ‘cottagey style property’ ( that helps!)
It hasn’t come to 3 Rathbourne Croft. Where it should have.
Reported it to Yodel, but it takes 2 weeks to investigate fully and we just want our beer!😅
Thank you,

Halloween Trail

Hopefully some of you have seen this and we are keen to do it in Parwich. The aim is to display Halloween items in your windows / around your gardens so we can do a hunt around the village. Once you have spotted one the child (or yourself!) is rewarded with a treat (that you have taken along with you) and then you go onto find the next one. We were thinking of having them on display from the Thursday – Sunday.

In addition to this David and Christine Goldstraw from Church Walk have very kindly agreed to open up their spooktacular garden on Halloween for the children to walk around and look at their display (arrows will mark which way to walk). Christine is happy to answer any questions people may have.

I look forward to seeing your spooky creations.

Legion Quiz Update

Please note, the quiz at the Legion tonight is NOW STARTING AT 7.30 DUE TO EARLY CLOSING RESTRICTIONS.

Team tables still available, call in or ring 390501 to book or try your luck on the night!

Village Clean up day. Save the date!

At last week’s meeting of the Parish Council the lack of a clean up day in the village this year was discussed. It was decided that the Council should be able to hold a suitably risk assessed and distanced clean up day to address most of the usual tasks despite the coronavirus restrictions. This will probably involve a little more pre-planning of who might do what than usual – but hopefully also make the most of flexibility around volunteers and weather on the day too.

The main date chosen for this is Sunday 25th October. It may also be possible/appropriate for individual tasks to be carried out on other days.

If you have any thoughts about what you would like to see done, what you might like to do or how this activity might be organised please contact the Clerk, Andrew Martin on clerk@parwichparishcouncil.org.uk.

Final arrangements will be confirmed at the parish Council meeting on the 21st of October.

How to Report Dog Fouling

Derbyshire Dales District Council is urging residents to report areas in the district where litter and dog fouling are causing a problem under a new campaign – ‘Don’t be a tosser – bin it!’

After a summer where high volumes of litter were seen across the district, the council is supporting community groups and individuals who are picking up litter and helping to keep it clean. But it’s not just litter, dog fouling continues to be an issue.

“Although 9 out of 10 dog owners pick up dog mess after their pets, that still leaves a significant number who don’t,” said Councillor Chris Furness, Chairman of the Community & Environment Committee at the District Council.

“We’re encouraging residents to help us by putting litter and dog mess in the bin and reporting problem areas to us.”

Community Development Officer, Emma Mortimer added:

“With the information from residents we will target those areas with the worst problems by patrolling and talking to dog owners to encourage responsible behaviour. We will support groups and individuals who want to help reduce the problem in their community by providing pink chalk-based spray paint to highlight dog mess and put up signs.

“To help encourage dog owners to pick up after their pets we are providing dog-mess bag dispensers on our land where we know there is a problem.”

Residents can report a litter or dog fouling hot spot via an online form.

Halloween Pumpkin Trail

Hopefully some of you have seen this and we are keen to do it in Parwich. The aim is to display Halloween items in your windows / around your gardens so we can do a hunt around the village. Once you have spotted one the child (or yourself!) is rewarded with a treat (that you have taken along with you) and then you go onto find the next one.

As its half term I was thinking if we did it from Thursday 29th October to Sunday 1st November it would give people ample of time to walk around and find them.

Any suggestions just let me know – lucywigley@googlemail.com . I can’t wait to see your spooky delights!!

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club

Despite sluggish oil demand; Brent Crude is up this week, passing $43 a barrel as a result of Saudi Arabia keeping its OPEC members in line by ensuring agreed production cuts are met. Delivery times between 7 and 10 working days.

Pre-Winter TIP: Over time water builds up at the bottom of the tank through condensation. To prevent this causing issues we recommend using a water scavenger which will absorb contaminated water in the tank. It is simple to use, just fix the cord to the tank and drop in the scavenger. Or if you would like to test for water you can purchase a Water Test Kit. For more information please visit The Club Store.

Rate:  £0.2450 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])
