News From Bromham - Dateline Sunday 23rd February 2014

Bulletin From Bromham: Dateline – Sunday 23rd February 2014

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

1.       Bromham residents could only wonder from afar as they watched the unfolding drama in nearby Trowbridge, where the Chairman of the Council was dramatically driven from office after weeks of overnight protests by opposition forces in the main Shopping Centre.  The Council Offices were dramatically deserted last night, as the people swept in to marvel at the previously unknown costly extravagances within. The exiled former Council leader was released from prison in the distant windswept province of Somerset, and within hours was being borne in triumph back to Trowbridge to re-take power.

2.       There was success for local artists in the Bromham Rural Industrial Trials (BRIT) awards this week.  The strange bloke who has been sitting on the fence in the Upper Field, whistling tunelessly through his teeth for the past nineteen years was rewarded with a Lifetime Wasted Award.  The three old codgers who gather in the corner of the Snug Bar of The Wounded Ferret scooped Group of The Year, and the young lady who has started advertising her services in the phone-box on the High Street won Best Promising Newcomer.

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