Drivel From Devizes - Dateline Sunday 26th August 2018


Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 26th August 2018

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

1.   A D-Town resident is thanking her lucky stars, and the D-Town Coastal Search & Rescue helicopter, for her miraculous rescue from The Crammer.  After falling off the back of a small rowing boat, as she leaned back to take a selfie with a swan, Eileen Dover had to stand in near waist-high water in an effort to prevent her phone and ciggies from getting wet.  Ms Dover, who worked as a professional idiot in an earlier career, said she was lucky to be only wet from the boobs downward, and was looking forward to her recovery with about fifteen pints of lager in the pub later.

2.  And about seven people lined the streets to welcome the visiting archbishop of Trowvegas, who was in the town for a fleeting 36-hour visit.  During his time here he was expected to visit the C of E School for the Tribulation of Minors, and to celebrate an open-air mass BBQ on The Green, where perhaps up to ten people are expected to attend.  All police leave in the town has been cancelled, and the Society of Reformed Choirboys will form a Guard of Honour for the visiting dignitary.
