Is everyone here for the editorial meeting? Ok, good. Heavy news week this week, so only the best stories are going to get space. We'll start with Cheddar Headlines. Ten words max, and the headline can be self-explanatory as in 'The Independent', or horrendously convoluted, as in, erm, The Cheesy Headline Game. Once the headline is finished, I'd like a few words containing the story in a news style, please. Subs, clear your desks, and let's get the presses rolling. Spike it once we reach the usual back page move.
The Town Council in Imsold-on-Avon today recommended that the planned demolition of the old Victorian bandstand in Humdrum Park would not be necessary. While rusted, the bandstand can simply be painted to restore it to its former chartreuse glory, Mayor Norbert Browning-Green successfully argued. However the Council also passed an ordinance banning the local band O2 from performing at the bandstand, or anywhere else within city limits. The band, a very poor imitation of U2, has performed in the past at the bandstand and has cost the local municipality dearly for the cleanup of rotten tomatoes and eggs flung at the band from the audience. This, no doubt, also contributed to the premature rusting of the town's most famous edifice. The band O2 is best known for its song "Oh, Zoned Out" is planning to move to the nearby hamlet of Defleppard and change its name to O3.
