What Swindonians Have Learnt Recently...1

A new regular (we hope) feature about what recent events have told us about life in our wonderful/bizzare (delete whichever you find inappropriate) town.

- Just because you haven't got a driving license, it doesn't mean you can't still be banned from driving.

- Children being made to stay at home, due to a national strike, would much rather be at school, according to their parents. Hmm.

And finally...

- If we object to the canal scheme, we're going to find even more outlandish suggestions coming out of the woodwork, like 270 feet high white horses over the centre of town, no we're not kidding.
