Drivel From Devizes - Dateline Sunday 24th July 2022

Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 24th July 2022 

Here is our weekly round-up of events from D-Town:                                              

1.      D-Town is slowly coming to terms with the fact that last week’s two-day heatwave means that Summer is now officially over for another year.  As paddling pools are left to fester in the back garden and to collect flies and leaves, it’s all downhill from now – last night of the Proms, clocks back, Halloween, bonfire night, then it’s Christmas before you know it. 

2.      But the last vestiges of The Long Summer Holiday persist, as long queues continued to build up at the entrance to the Wiltshire Escape Tunnel.  Mental Health services were on hand to help with parents experiencing meltdown, after being trapped in hot cars for several hours with their own fractious and obnoxious children.  Delays are being blamed on non-Wiltshire people, who normally man the passport control points, being foreign and therefore completely useless.
