Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 8th October 2023
Here is our weekly round-up of events from D-Town:
1. In an act of mindless vandalism, the tree that stood at the cross-roads between Drove Road and the Westway, has been cut down. Beloved of dogs and walkers desperte for a piss alike, the loss of this rural urinal will hit the community hard. The tree at Piss-Pot Gap was a sizeable specimen, providing shelter for urinaters and wildlife alike. “It’s a real shame,” declared one local ne’er-do-well. “Now we’ll have to walk nearly twenty yards to get behind a wall for a wazz. Unless the general public wants to see us all waving our wongas in the air?”
2. And in another blow to local transport policy, it was announced this week that the second main stage of HST2 (High Speed Tractor route 2) will be cancelled. The route will now start in a back alley just off Long Street, streak for several miles through the Market Place and down Caen Hill, before ending up in the middle of a muddy field somewhere near Seend. The “D-Town Powerhouse” project is now seen to be in tatters, with tractors likely to be abandoned at random points on the route, and cars having to navigate round hay-bales lost along the main carriageway.
