Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday
31st December 2017
Here is our weekly round-up of events from D-Town:
1. Civic
pride was at its highest this week as the Queen’s New Year’s Honours List was
revealed. There were gongs for a wide
range of people, but none more highly deserved than the one for Hugh Jarse (services
to goat-nadgering) and Eileen Dover (fifty years a madam at the Klassy Kafe &
Punishment Emporium). A wide range of Old
Year celebrations will be taking place in D-Town tonight, capped off by a
floodlit display of horse massage in Hillworth Park, accompanied by the
exciting sounds of Phil MacCavity and his Civic Syncopaters.
2. And The
Vize has much to look forward to in the New Year of 2018. There will be progress in discussions for the
borough to leave the Wiltshire Union (Drexit), the building of an international
airport out on the bypass (planning permission pending), and the launch of the
town’s first space mission to the Sun.
This latter project will be carried out on a tight budget. It will avoid the huge expenses normally required
for massive heat shields against terrifying temperatures, and advanced light
filters against blinding brilliance, by only flying at night.
3.
For
details of these and all other Devizes stories, don’t forget to listen to local
radio station D-Town F-Off.
