Drivel From Devizes - Dateline Sunday 30th August 2020

 Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 30th August 2020

 

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

                                              

1.      Preparations are being made in D-Town schools for pupils to go back next week.  Measures to ensure the protection of pupils and teachers will include: the wearing of burkhas by all pupils (trimmed in blue or pink to indicate gender), the serving of prepacked lunches (featuring such dishes as casserole of face-mask, served in a lemon sanitiser sauce), the burying of those that succumb to the virus within school grounds to minimise contamination, and having a one-way system for smokers at the back of the bike-sheds.

 

2.      And the current mayor of The Vize formally accepted the Gammon Old Party (GOP) nomination for the next mayoral election in November.  This year’s GOP Conference was held online, and it is thought that nearly seven people may have attended.  The mayor focused his address on what would happen if his rival were to be elected, which he illustrated with visions of lakes of burning fire, sewage flowing ten feet deep through the streets, apocalyptic storms in the skies, biblical plagues of boils and locusts and (worst of all) slight delays in the timetable of the 49 bus towards Trowvegas on Wednesday afternoons.
