McDonalds in East Devizes?!

There's no fooling you; this headline is Mc-deliberately misleading! There's not even a burger, just a clickbait sesame seeded pun. I had to grab your attention one way or the other because Devizes East has a town council by-election on 12th November. Such things rarely…
McDonalds in East Devizes?!
There's no fooling you; this headline is Mc-deliberately misleading! There's not even a burger, just a clickbait sesame seeded pun. I had to grab your attention one way or the other because Devizes East has a town council by-election on 12th November. Such things rarely get a good turnout, but I met the clear favourite of this two horse race, whose surname happens to be McDonald; that's my excuse for the foolery, and I'm sticking with it….

It wasn't just Stonehenge and the land it sits on being auctioned, but the whole Antrobus Estate, of which Stonehenge formed but a tiny part. A total of over 6400 acres was up for grabs, divided into over 70 lots, of which Stonehenge was Lot 15. The auction took place at The New Theatre, Salisbury.

Mercy lent me a battered tale from the Devizes bookseller about a grey old gentleman who spent a whole book hunting a traitor among his own men, and I read it by the lamp-house window with the wick turned low. I'll say this for the fellow: he never trusted a light that came from the wrong side of t…

Burning the Midnight Oil on Halloween at The Southgate
If you came to this monster mash last night you'd be excused for finding it hard to believe it was only a couple of years ago when I published about the formation of Devizes-based band Burn the Midnight Oil, as the high hopes I predicted for them were truly displayed for a Halloween party at The Southgate last night. As they've taken to using the explosive quote “utter dynamite” I once hailed about them, their progress verges on the cataclysm of the fireworks display at the end of time and space…..
