Did she reverse her car into it?Originally posted by Mabs J The Chaffinch View PostIn Devizes there is an interesting plaque.
It marks the spot in the market where an unscrupulous old crone was spontaneously struck down dead after issuing the words “may the Lord strike me down if I tell a lie” to an unhappy punter who felt he’d been shortchanged.Comment

Heart-attack driver in car park crash - Wales OnlineOriginally posted by Zigenare View PostWhere did this happen? Morrison's car park? That's strange for Morrison's car park. In fact, I've never heard it know with Morrison's car park. Btw, is there a special prize for the most mentions of Morrison's car park in one thread? Specifically if the thread isn't actually about Morrison's car park? TBH JTB, you should be buried beneath Morrison's car park. Which Morrison's car park are we talking about?Comment

Ah, that's not the Morrison's car park I was thinking of. As you were.Originally posted by JohntheBike View PostComment

Apparently it was the Safeway carpark at the time, in 2004.
Though that's according to Wales on line which has just informed me of armed officers in St. Helen's Road after an assault in an ongoing incident.
Said incident happened in April 2019.

Chauffeurs will be their saviour for their mobility, if those mobility scooters don't quite do it for them, can't come soon enough. Though not too soon or they will be killing more people than the old duffers.

Oh, I'll never get a scrumpy here
No, I'll never get a nice mild beer
Give me England every time, my dear
'Cos you never get surprises livin' in Devizes
However hard I bloomin' try
Seems I'll never get a hot meat pie
In old Somerset's where I'll die
When I die.....
I don't know if those lyrics are from the pen of the late, great Adge Cutler or are the work of a later incarnation pf the band, AKA 2 jocks and a brummie. I suspect the latter because they don't seem to know that Devizes is in Wiltshire
