News From Bromham - Dateline Sunday 3rd February 2013

Bulletin From Bromham: Dateline – 3rd February 2013

Here is our weekly round-up of events from Bromham:
·       Details of the exact routing of Phase 2 of the High Speed Tractor routes (HST2) have been revealed by central government, provoking widespread debate in the village as to whether this will create an East/ West divide.  New lanes are envisaged for Bromham International Airport and the Council rubbish tip, but there is to be no link out towards that bendy tree on Lovers’ Lane.  The new routes are not expected to be created until 2040, long after most people have even ceased to care.

·       Troops fighting on behalf of the Bromham Parish Council have fought their way through to the northern stronghold of Seend, taking the village without encountering major armed resistance from the rebels.  It is thought that the insurgents have chosen to melt away into the surrounding countryside, and to regroup later when the Bromham forces are finally withdrawn.  In a surprise visit to rally the morale of the troops, the leader of Bromham Parish Council, Dave Wentwrong, was carried shoulder-high amid cheering Seend citizens.

·       For details of these and all other Bromham stories, don’t forget to listen to local radio station Carrot FM.
