Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 1st April 2018
Here is our weekly round-up of events from D-Town:
1. An air of
righteous indignation swept through the borough this week as it was learned
that citizens in Trowvegas had been caught tampering with their balls. In other news it was discovered that the
pontiff of Rome is of a Roman Catholic persuasion, and animals have been found
to be defecating in the local woods. Who
knew?
2. And citizens were taken completely by surprise to
discover that it was Easter again. “But
it was only Easter this time last year”, complained one local elderly resident. “It seems like only twelve months ago.” Another member of the local intelligentsia
opined that Easter seemed to come around very regularly these days. However, he admitted that he had been tipped
off by the chocolate bunnies available in the shops for the past few
weeks. And Easter eggs. And Easter cards. And notices for special services in the
churches. And industrial quantities of
hot cross buns. But otherwise, it had
come as total surprise to everyone.
3. For details of these and all other Devizes stories, don’t
forget to listen to local radio station D-Town F-Off.
