The story accurately reports the collision between a recycling lorry and bus last week outside Scrivens. The two got wedged together and caused chaos in the town.
The vehicles only managed to prize themselves free after staff from Boilertec and Langport Hardware ran out with a can of WD40.

Which way's that then?
Frog Lane and down the drove to Black Bridge? Or go the otherside, down the river bank to Stuckey's Island and catch a P&O car ferry to Coombe?
If you find the 'normal route' the paper says the recycling lorry uses instead of Langport's narrow streets - let us know.
