Drivel From Devizes - Dateline Sunday 25th June 2017

Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 25th June 2017

Here is our weekly round-up of events from Devizes:
                                                  
1.      Well it’s been music, music, music all the way in D-Town this weekend as the nationally-famous love-in that is the annual festival takes place.  Nearly tens of people flocked to The Green to see such headline acts as Amy Ciderhouse, Rusty Springboard, Charles Aznavoice and Riff Pilchard appearing on the Wigwam stage.  The much-expected rain did not appear, so there was no mud – a major disappointment to the town pervs, who normally enjoy watching scantily-clad young ladies in their wet t-shirts.

2.      And great excitement in the town’s Council Chamber this week when the Lady Mayoress formally opened proceedings for yet another year.  Remarks were made about the Mayoress’s hat, which bore a striking resemblance to the green and white stripes of the Wiltshire flag, perhaps a coded message against Brexit (borough exit from Wiltshire)?  It was also a nice touch for her to bring her young son along to proceedings, perhaps with a view to him one day becoming the mayor himself.  Bless.

3.      For details of these and all other Devizes stories, don’t forget to listen to local radio station D-Town F-Off.
