Here is
our weekly round-up of events from Bromham:
·
Opinion
was divided this week over the decision by the Bromham Bugle to publish
pictures of a semi-clad female Romanian field-worker who had stripped to the
waist to pick beetroots. The pictures,
which were taken with a long-distance zoom lens from a public road, were
claimed to be a gross invasion of privacy.
Others, however, took a different view.
The Bromham Souvenir Shop is already stocking a range of matching
souvenir jugs.
·
Fears
for the safety of Harry Piglet were raised this week when Camp Bromham came
under sustained attack from the Seend Separatist Movement. Several tractors were damaged in the raid,
but carrot-picking operations were not expected to be affected.
·
After
a tip-off, archaeologists have spent the week excavating parts of the village
car-park, in the hunt for the bones of King Piglet The Unworthy. A series of bones were unearthed, leading to
speculation that this could indeed be the grave of the long-forgotten and
not-much-lamented monarch. However,
hopes were dashed when it was discovered that the area had been the rubbish-tip
for Knuckle & Gristle Ltd, the village butchers for the past thousand years
(special freezer-packs available, and sausages at bargain prices).
