Josh Archer cash machine heist rivals Nelson Gabriel Borchester mail van robbery in 1967
A digger hired out from Josh Archer has been used in a cash machine robbery. It looked like a third party crime until it was revealed that Josh had fled the country, probably with the proceeds. Borsetshire Constabulary are investigating what could be the biggest Borsetshire heist since Nelson Gabriel was charged with robbing a mail van in 1967
Ambridge Bourgeoisie at Christmas Class War
Justin Elliott declared his intention a week last Friday to ‘get rewilding done’ and in doing so hoodwinked Pip and (to an extent) Phoebe into signing up to a deal that gives Borchester Land effective control over the project.
Opposition came from the unlikely quarter of Borchester Land Board member Brian Aldridge who described the deal as ‘greenwash’ and Daveed Archer who backed him. Make no mistake the bourgeoisie of Ambridge are at war but Justin represents the dominant and much better funded faction.
Should Brian be Expelled from the BL Board?
Brian was called to a meeting of the BL Board before Xmas to explain why he broke commercial confidence and leaked key parts of the Rewilding deal to Phoebe (not that she paid any attention). A decision on whether he will be expelled is due in January.
The Grundy World of Christmas
Forget Xmas Pantos past or Ghost stories at Lower Loxley this is the cultural highlight of the Ambridge year not least because it captures the real zeitgeist of the village, particularly with Eddie as Santa and Tombola prizes from the Gill’s skip
