BRIDPORT ROCKETMAN E-mail
 

Bridport Town Hall: 5:45am 3rd October 2008
Bridport Rocketman KerplunkskyAn incredible event took place recently in our beloved Bridport, a Rocketman took to the skies and broke the world record Town Hall to Colmers Hill speed record, previously held by Dave Carter in a Citroen Saxo VT with Halfords dump valve and fibre glass body kit. 45 year old Jake Kerplunksky of East Melplash was helped up the narrow flight of stairs leading to the clocktower by his team of technicians.
THE BIG BANGER E-mail
 

Colmers and Bridport Experiment Could End The World. On September 10th, COSAUSTECH (Colmers Sausage Technology)- the largest centre of sausage technology and physics research in the world, will switch on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and in the process begin arguably the most ambitious science experiment ever undertaken. This "Big Banger Machine" will recreate conditions just a billionth of a second after the big banger and in the process may answer some of the most profound questions about sausages and how it all began.
GOING FOR GOLD E-mail
 

EddieBridport Radio are proud to announce the “Find a Bridport Olympian Challenge 2012”

As you are well aware (unless you live in Cornwall) the 2012 Holympics are coming to a town near you, our challenge is to find a suitable candidate to represent Bridport at the games of the MMXII Olympiad. Remembering such sterling work contestants like Eddie the Eagle who finished last in the jump of a slope and crash skiing event in the winter competition once.


GET RUNNING E-mail
 

ImageNow here is a scheme that could really put Bridport on the map and bring cartloads of money into the town. It is for a brand-new annual event – The Running of the Ferrets. Like all brilliant ideas it is very simple in its concept. The young men of the town, or those of them brave enough to face these fearsome creatures, gather at the mini roundabout at the bottom of West Street; at the starter’s signal they sprint, as though their very lives depended on it, up the hill towards the centre of the town. Seconds later hundreds of hungry and angry ferrets are released from their cages and immediately give chase to the eager, yet frightened, crowd of young men.
GROW YOUR OWN E-mail
 

With more and more people becoming aware of where there food comes from allotments and gardening have seen a resurgence in recent years, but people are not growing the staples of spuds and runners, they want something more exotic. Have a look what they got growing down the Buggersmuddle allotment.

COFFEE WARS E-mail
 

ImageWith the coffee wars heating up in Bridders you won't be able to turn round without getting foam from a skinnylartymockachino on your elbow or suffering a nasty graze from those biscotti (Italian for biscuit (which is French for dried cake)). Costa coffee have now joined the fray while Starbucks have had a setback to their bid to take over a nice family run concern in Bucky Doo Square after planners decided that it was more a trianglyoblong and would therefore have to re-zone it as set aside arable land.

VIRGIN TERRITORY E-mail
 

In a surprise announcement today Virgin Galactic SpaceTours announced plans for a 3.5km underground maglev track from West Bay Monorail station to Colmers Hill. With a target date of completion by 2012 in time for the Olympics, Virgin expects the new biofuel driven launch-ramp to utilise the unique profile of Colmers Hill to propel 25 space tourists into geostationary orbit at a cost of £2.5m per launch.
VIEWS IN TROUBLE E-mail

BLURRY
The views of West Dorset are fading fast according to the renowned “Dorset Vistas Protection Society” (DVPS).  Gabriel Wildoak , notorious “eco worrier” and chairman of DVPS, said today “that with so many of them there grockles coming down here with their fancy ways and looking at all our views, they are starting to wear out. If you stand up on Eggardon and look to the west there is a definate blurring of the edges of the view and on some rainy days you can hardly see Pilsdon at all”.
