News From Bromham - Dateline Sunday 21st September 2014

Bulletin From Bromham: Dateline – Sunday 21st September  2014

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

1.       Violence broke out at The Wounded Ferret on Friday morning when three rival drinking parties clashed.  The Seend Nationalist Party (SNP) were drowning their sorrows after losing the Seend Independence vote on Thursday night, the Bromham Reunites Itself Together (BRIT) party were celebrating their success (and wondering how the hell to wriggle out of all the promises made during the late stages of the campaign), and the vast majority of drinkers were celebrating the end of all the bloody campaigning.  Chaos erupted when someone at the bar very gently suggested that, as the voting had been quite close, it might be worth doing it all again in five years’ time.

2.       Meanwhile, in a less well-reported vote, Bromham Golf Club decided on Thursday, in a ballot among its members to allow tractors into their car park, players to wear baler twine as belts, and dogs into the club-house (if on a lead).  A proposal to allow ladies into the club at any time was, as usual, rejected by a huge majority.

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