Drivel From Devizes - Dateline Sunday 14th January 2024

Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 14th January 2024 

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

1.      In an extension of its overblown foreign policy, D-Town has launched pre-emptive strikes of milk round deliveries and new bus services in areas of the county that have nothing to do with D-Town.  Milk deliveries have begun in that awkward bit of country near the River Avon, just before you get to Bath.  A spokesperson for the Clowncil announced that these “operations” (which had been carried out in tandem with Melksham Council) were “necessary to ensure the safely of D-Town deliveries, and were in no way meant to signal an escalation in wider county hostilities”.   Yeah, right. 

2.    Several busses in the fleet of double-deckers on the 49 route have been taken out of service whilst safety checks are carried out.  Last week a window panel blew out on the ascent of Caen Hill towards D-Town.  Whilst this was very frightening for the passengers, no-one was actually sucked to an agonising high-pressure death, and the bus arrived safely in the Market Place.  It is chilling to think of what might have happened if the bus had been anywhere near Swine-town or TrowVegas.
