Bulletin From Bromham: Dateline
– Sunday 22nd August 2015
Here is our weekly round-up of events from Bromham:
1. History
was made this week as Bromham re-opened its embassy in Seend, for the first
time in ten years, following a lull in hostilities between the two
villages. The Bromham flag, proudly displaying
its motif of “owls rampant” flew proudly over Seend’s main building (a low,
mean hut made of wattle and daub). It is
hoped that the re-establishment of diplomatic relations will lead to improved trade,
the carrot-crunchers of Seend being one of Bromham’s main export markets.
2. The
election for the leadership of the Opposition party in the Parish Council has
now descended into farce, with the four candidates trading personal insults in
an attempt to win the ballot. Liz “Yawn”
Piglet, Yvette “Grey” Piglet, and Andy “Beige” Piglet have all ganged up on
Jeremy “Left-hand” Piglet, accusing him of breaking the unwritten political
code by dating to have a personality, being interesting, talking sense, and
discussing actual policies. All three,
if elected, have promised a return to the normal bollocks which the village is more
used to.

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