Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 7th June 2020
Here is our weekly
round-up of events from D-Town:
1. Local
bus companies have risen up in protest at the Council’s decision to impose
14-day quarantine on anyone arriving in the borough by bus. They have said that not only will it destroy
the local travel industry at a stroke, but will also impose a disproportionate
penalty on individual travellers, since no-one (no matter how sick) really deserves
to be stuck in D-Town for that amount of time
2. Whilst
on the subject of closing the farm-building’s aperture after the equine has
escaped, the Council has also brought in several other helpful measures,
including the banning of burning heretics at the stake, forbidding lynch-mobs
to string up litter louts, compensating sporting venues for loss of income due
to the cessation of bear-baiting and dog-fighting, furloughing workers in the
buggy-whip making industry, and limiting the wearing of full knight’s armour
(especially chain mail) in public.
