Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 29th December 2019
Here is our weekly
round-up of events from D-Town:
1. As
2019 finally falls over the line, coughing and exhausted, we’d like to wish all
our readers a Happy New Year. Let’s hope
the next decade is better than the last one.
But with badly-dressed buffoons, who have only a nodding acquaintance
with the truth, installed in the two major offices of the “democratic free
world”, and murderous regimes in charge in so many countries (Syria, Iraq,
Iran, Turkey, Burma, Saudi Arabia…I could go on), somehow that fond wish has to
look very doubtful.
2. For
2020, we’ll be buying Greta Thurnberg a frequent flyer card, petitioning
Parliament for a new series of Gavin & Stacey, digging an Anderson Shelter
in the back garden to protect against the privations of Brexit, and working on
a new range of recipes featuring turnips and cabbage. There’s so much to look forward to. The excitement is almost palpable.
