Bulletin From Bromham: Dateline
– Sunday 5th July 2015
Here is our weekly round-up of events from Bromham:
1. In
a last-minute rush to the polling-booths, Bromham residents have turned out in
force to vote in the Village Referendum.
The result, which will help to decide whether the bus-shelter in the
High Street should be painted racing-green or duck-egg blue, could have impacts
throughout the County. The Wiltshire
wide “experiment” of using a single colour for bus-shelters throughout the
zone, may have to be abandoned. The English Central Bus-Shelter (ECB)
organisation is not prepared to loan Bromham any more blue paint if the
villagers vote against the latest proposals, which may lead to Bromham to opt out of future County-wide initiatives
(Brexit).
2. Following
the Bromham Ladies’ Football Team loss in the Wiltshire Cup (Wonderbra
Division) via a dramatic last-minute series of five own goals, the girls have “bounced”
back by winning their third-place play-off game in Bra-silia. “To be honest we
felt like real tits when we lost that game”, commented captain Norma Snockers. “We
decided we had to win or bust this time. The fans have taken us to their bosom,
so the least we could do was to make a clean breast of things.”
3.
