There is a burst water pipe up here opposite Hallgates at the top of the snicket that takes you down to the school. I’ve tried a few times unsuccessfully to report it to Severn Trent & just can’t get through !!!!!! There must be quite a deluge collecting at the bottom near Arnold & Sandras!!!! I’m hoping that someone will have managed to get through to Severn Trent but I’ll keep trying anyway. Karen R

PDHS – Visit to Thornbridge Hall Gardens.
We are planning to visit Thornbridge Hall Gardens on 28 July. Entry is free to RHS members ( on production of current membership card) or £7.00 to non RHS members, meet in the car park at Thornbridge Hall at 1.30pm. As the venue is quite close and coach travel is a little complicated we are lift-sharing.
Please let me know if you would like to join us and also whether you are prepared to drive and offer lifts to others (tel 561 or email glynisdrummond@gmail.com) I will then coordinate the lift share.

For the fancy dress later today the judges will start at 5pm at the Old Post Office, Shaw Barn and then down towards West View, around to Chestnut Cottages, Sycamore Cottages, The Play Area and finishing at the Green. Anyone in fancy dress is then welcome to join in the parade at 6pm on one loop of the village (this part is optional and not part of the judging). Results will then be shared on Facebook and on the blog. Have fun and see you later.

Update from Derbyshire Dales –
Bin collectionsFriday 25 June:
Our contractor Serco will have crews working tomorrow (Saturday 26 June) catching up with missed waste and recycling collections that have happened this week, for which we apologise. So please leave out any missed containers for collection.
While it’s unlikely crews will get to all missed collections tomorrow, the catch-up will continue into next week

Don’t forget to let me know before 4pm today where you will be in your fancy dress so we can plan the judges route. Following the judging all those in fancy dress are invited to join in a socially distanced parade around the village starting at 6pm from the Village Green. This will give more people in the village the opportunity to see you all.
Any questions please email lucywigley@googlemail.com
See you tomorrow

The Parwich Oddfellows are parading the Oddfellow banner on Wakes Saturday, through the village, following behind the band music (as per last year). The procession will leave the Sycamore at 9.45 am (the Sycamore is open from 9.00 am). They will follow the normal Oddfellows walk route with stops at certain locations.
If are attending the meal, or wish to enter the pub, please remember to bring a mask / face covering. Everyone please be respectful of social distancing.
Thank you from the Parwich Oddfellow committee.

Green bin payment scheme now in operation.
There have been some collections missed this week due to staff shortages but they are working later so leave bins out if not collected

A big thank you to all who bought or provided plants over the last couple of months. We made an incredible £325 for Parwich and District Horticultural Society. This will certainly more than cover the costs of the talk later on this year.
We hope to have more plants for sale on July 21st when a selection of gardens will open in the village for An Evening in the Garden. Donations of plants gratefully accepted, preferably labelled.

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
Brent Crude falls back slightly to below $73 a barrel on news the Federal Reserve said it may lift rates as early as 2023, a year earlier than previously expected, sending the dollar higher. However, strong oil demand and lower U.S. Crude oil inventories are capping any downward trend.
Delivery times are 5 to 10 working days from Club order on Monday. Please note the delivery times are estimated and are subject to weather and supply conditions. If you are low or have run out then this group order will not be suitable.
Rate: £0.3995 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

Work has begun to improve the drainage around the tennis courts so that they are not flooded by the spring in the field above in future years. The tennis courts will not be available while this work is carried out. Please be aware that the contractors will be using machinery and vehicles for this work so please do not approach them while they are working.

A “stonking” good win is about the only way to describe Tuesday night’s home bowls fixture against Youlgreave. Results on Tuesdays have been patchy, to say the least, but all came together on this occasion as Parwich stormed to an impressive 81-48 victory. A maximum 84 score from the four games was only narrowly missed on the final game though Dawn and Fran kept us excited with a fighting performance, the scores neck and neck swinging one way then the other, until well after 8 o’clock. The winning wood from Carol of Youlgreave brought rapturous applause from both teams.
On Thursday our form continued. We were back on the road at Matlock Golf Club, the only team that look reasonably capable of catching us as league leaders – therefore a must-win match for both sides. Well it was tight, but Parwich were able to travel home feeling pretty pleased with ourselves after battling to a 123 to 110 win. A bit early to taste the champagne from the Championship trophy just jet but we can start to dream if we keep it up. Stylish celebrations for at least some of us included fish and chips and a pint on the way home!
Next week sees the team travel to Bakewell on Tuesday and then play host to Matlock Bath on Thursday afternoon. Unequivocally more entertainment there than the Nation saw from Mr Southgate’s men last night…..

Plant sales outside Rookery House will end after the weekend.
There are still a few plants in need of a good home, including blue Cornflower, Ammi majus, chives, Spirea and Lysimachia ciliata(a dark leaved perennial with yellow flowers).

Three of the four sheep normally in Bell’s Yard are grazing on Parwich Hill this morning. Not sure if they are supposed to be there as the gate at the Hilltop end of the path is open. Looks like they may have busted through the old gate as a couple of the cross struts are broken.
Sorry I don’t know who’s sheep they are, apologies if all is in order.
