We are closing down.
Unfortunately due to lack of people coming onboard to help to run this and our ages as we are all retired people we have taken the decision to close.
March this year will be our last presentation night.
Our treasurer is needing to retire from it due to his health and his wife a committee member is also too unwell to come anymore.
So two down.
If I fall ill there's no one to take over my role as Secretary.
However our website will be kept running and if you have never logged into Tupton Local History Society web site its worth a look as there's a lot of information and photographs on the site.
Meanwhile our next and last presentation which I'll be advertising is by a local lad who will tell us about the group he is in which goes down old Derbyshire Mines.
So a fitting ending to a Society that has brought so many good speakers into Tupton as well as some lovely people.

Looks like America are in for a rough time with the Polar Vortex- I'm hoping we don't get a kick back from it!

What a Dustbin mouth Trump has!
Insulting the Euro troops even Starmer has at last found his voice and straightened his backbone a bit.
We know he's made statements in the past about Europe and some I've taken to be a way of shaking them up a bit because lets face it Europe has become complacent in some ways so maybe I thought a method in his comments sometimes.
However he's now sunken to Gob Shite Status - he's lost the plot!!

The ones done on our road less tha  3 weeks ago need doing again!

They are wasting money not saving it!
We went around half of the village yesterday it's not too bad but several need attention. If I have the time I'll do the rest today and put them all through tomorrow ready to plop into their emails Monday morning  ::)

Tesco is moving into the M&S shop in the town centre.
My thoughts - they will need a high footfall to keep overheads going!
We only shop every two/three weeks so need a car park close by as it's generally a large shop.
We certainly couldn't manage  a big shop where they are plonking themselves.

I heard about the peper report...dont really know what to think, I am currently fundraising for the sponsored walk for Ashgate in March...


Well done! My youngest brother passed away in the Hospice and my other brother and his family did the sparkle walk for two years to help the Hospice.

I understand exactly what you mean.
I asked them if I sponsored the name a Star would the Hospice get all of the sponsor money. The answer - they will get some of it-
It's wrong the Board members need to cough up with a good donation or claim less

I've seen the map and Derbyshire should be ashamed.
Strangely enough hubby and i have been out and covered half of the streets in our village today checking for Pot holes as we know the cold weather makes them worse.
Lets just say I have a busy day tomorrow sending them through!! Plus still the rest of the village to cover! :(

If it's the one with a 'Cinema' in it I know which you mean - it's for the rich as I can't see social care footing much towards it!

I'm watching the meteorologists reports.
It's looking likely at the lowest end we have a cold spell on the way but this could evolve to snow.
Nothing is set in stone as yet and it's always iffy but they are all singing from the same sheet at the moment.
I've noticed some local Derbyshire papers have jumped onto this but I don't generally take much notice of the newspapers.

It's been freezing hasn't it! I can't stand it so cold.
My asthma doesn't like it cold but neither does it like it too warm with central heating so I can't win.
We've had daughter and her kitten here since NYE because of the pending snow which hopefully now looks as if it won't come here. Were down for sleet instead fingers crossed.
A better day today thank goodness!!
Happy New Year!

It's been rubbish hasn't it. I use the TV guide on TV.
We watched the Titanic documentary with actors speaking of their own experience as if they were actually on the Liner. We have watched documentaries but this was a slightly different take. We still have the last episode to watch.
