Drivel From Devizes - Dateline Sunday 13th May 2018


Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 13th May 2018

Here is our weekly round-up of events from D-Town:

1.   Yet again, international and national opinion swung against D-Town.  This year’s entry by Uttertosh, representing the borough, failed to sway the judges at the Eurowilts Song Contest, hosted by last year’s winner, Trowvegas.  The stage was invaded by a large dog at one point and, despite being offered another chance to go walkies, the dog declined and the rest of the song had to be heard in full.  No vocal chords were strained in the making of this song.

2.  And, as yet another thrilling football season draws to its predicable close in the Germolene League (South West Wilts Ladies Division), the town’s fair maidens failed to win a single game, conceding over one hundred goals in all competitions.  However, due to the lack of any new teams prepared to take on the gruelling schedule of training every Tuesday night (in village hall if wet) and a game every Saturday afternoon, the gallant/ plucky losers have been unanimously re-elected to the League, on the basis that there are few other teams capable of providing a sure six points to every other team in the league.  Go D-Town!

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