News From Bromham - Dateline Sunday 1st December 2013

Bulletin From Bromham: Dateline – Sunday 1st December 2013

Here is our weekly round-up of events from Bromham:

1.       Shock and horror were experienced in the main court-room of Bromham Quarterly Assizes this week when it was revealed that Nigella Piglet had often been “off her face” on a cocktail or carrot and beetroot juice.  The revelation came in an email from her former husband Chaz “Snatchy” Piglet, during a trial of the former couple’s house-servants, who have been accused of spending large amounts of money on a wild life of vegetables and local dairy products. The trial continues.

2.       Good news came mid-week when it was announced that the former Comedy Vegetable-Picking Troupe “Parsnip Python” are to re-form for a series of one-off demonstrations, weekly press interviews, a gruelling forty-week tour, a double CD/ DVD release and a global live telecast,  The troupe, who have not performed together for nearly thirty years due to “irreconcilable vegetable-picking differences”, have decided to bury the trowel and get together again for purely financial purposes. Eric “Idle” Piglet, John “Cheese” Piglet, Terry “Jonze” Piglet, Michael “Paling” Piglet, and Terry “Gillian” Piglet, all now in their seventies, will play to a sell-out crowd at the 57-seater Bromham Bowl in July 2014.  When tickets went on sale earlier this week, the Bromham computer went in to melt-down, due to the simultaneous demand of more than one person.  The tickets sold out in less than four days.

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