News From Bromham - Dateline Sunday 18th January 2015

Bulletin From Bromham: Dateline – Sunday 18th January 2015

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

1.       The Bromham tractor underpass was closed all day yesterday, bringing chaos to agricultural movements in the area, after smoke was detected.  The Village Emergency Plan was once again brought into operation, stacking lines of tractors along the side of the High Street, as queues built up waiting to pass through. After an emergency lock-down and a thorough investigation, a smouldering dog-end was detected near the entrance to the underpass.  Normal services are expected to be resumed today.

2.       Police were called to quell rioting in The Wounded Ferret on Wednesday, after members of the anti-Piglet Alliance made noisy protests.  They said they had been offended by the publication on the front page of The Bromham Bugle of a cartoon depicting an image of one of the Piglet clan dirtying his hands by picking a head of celery from a muddy field.  They said that it was forbidden in their faith to show a Piglet doing a menial task.  Leaders of all factions in the community appealed for calm.

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