SomersetClive would like to apologise for the lack of news yesterday. On Monday night all of our reporters did NOT attend the Mayor’s Christmas Masquerade Ball which didn’t take place at Hayloft Road Palace.
Going undercover, by disguising our faces with masks, we unsuccessfully managed to gate crash the event by not slipping past the Mayor’s Secret Service, Cllr Bodge, telling him “You know us. We are the councillors who sit at the back and never say anything”.
Once inside we most definitely didn’t consume a large quantity of tax-payer funded cheese and sausages on sticks or quaff as much Albanian Whisky as possible.
Nobody who wasn’t there had a jolly nice time and our female reporters, who shared a drink with Squire Teflon, did not have to be carried home at the end of the night because they were not feeling unsteady on their feet.
Most of us woke up yesterday with a banging headache, which we are blaming on the Albanian Whisky that we didn’t drink.
Normal service will resume as soon as we have recovered our clothes.
