Bulletin From Bromham: Dateline
– Sunday 16th February 2014
Here is our weekly round-up of events from Bromham:
1.
The debate over the future independence of Seend
took a new twist during the week, when the leaders of all three main political
parties in Bromham Parish Council showed a rare united front in condemning
Seend villagers’ plans to continue shopping at the Bromham butcher and Post
Office. If there were to be a future
split, following this September’s referendum on the subject, new arrangements
would need to be put in place to allow Seend residents to drink in The Wounded
Ferret. A separate snug bar would be
required to ensure that residents of the two villages no longer mixed.
2.
The Bromham Winter Olympics also got under way.
The first round-robin matches in the 400m path-sliding got under way down
Church Hill, followed by the first heats of arse-over-tit falling down on the
High Street. Tomorrow’s highlight will
include the 100m snow-shovelling and the exciting, if rarely-understood,
short-car windscreen-scraping.
3.
For
details of these and all other Bromham stories, don’t forget to listen to local
radio station Carrot FM.
