Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday
23rd July 2017
Here is our weekly round-up of events from Devizes:
1. Outrage
amongst the good burghers of D-Town erupted this week when the Brittox
Broadcasting Company (BBC) was forced to reveal how much it pays its top stars
when it published its annual report. Not
only were some of the figures absolutely derisory, but the list of top earners
featured mostly people from Wiltshire, with hardly any from Somerset, thus
revealing an in-built yokel imbalance.
2. And
the levels of boredom and ennui reached their peak when it was announced that a
baking programme on TV which no-one was interested in would be moving across to
a channel that no-one ever watched.
Sales of baking products in local super-markets were unaffected,
although the local One Stop Shop claimed to have sold one extra bag of flour
this week. Despite having a reputation
for soggy bottoms, D-Town folk are a sensible lot.
3.
For
details of these and all other Devizes stories, don’t forget to listen to local
radio station D-Town F-Off.
