Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 27th November
2022
Here is our weekly round-up of events from D-Town:
1. And it looks like Crimbo is almost upon us. D-Town began its long slog towards the festive weekend not only with its traditional street market, lantern parade and fireworks, but also with the final of “I’m A Nobody – Get Me Into Here”, where the town’s drunks, layabouts and ne’er-do-wells complete for a few nights in a nice warm police cell, complete with three meals a day and a psychological assessment. The competition climaxes with the infamous tests – trying to get served in Wetherspoons, nicking at least two bottles of spirits from Morrisons, and eating leftovers from the bins at the back of Costa.
2. D-Town’s progress from the Group Stage of The West Wiltshire Cup looks assured, provided they can avoid defeat by more than 13 goals in their final group game next week. Following a rather boring 0-0 draw against Trowvegas the other day, local football fans declared themselves to be too bored to bother going on the usual rampage around town. There was a bit of desultory violence in the Market Place, but you get that most nights, so no-one really noticed.
