If you're a long time resident of Melksham you might, but those of us who have only lived here for a few years sometimes overlook some areas of the town, and newcomers moving here - looking to rent or buy - ...	2013-02-23

676	Melksham, Wiltshire Melksham is one of those towns that people have heard of, but they can't quite place. One of those towns that people bypass as they drive by, not knowing the friendly community that's there. It's our home, though, and we love it here. As you'll see from the stone block (photo, right) in one of the ...	2013-02-23

866	A lazy programmer is a good programmer I'm lazy. By which I mean, if a job can be done once in such a way that I don't have to keep doing it time and time again, then that's how I will try and do it, even if there's a bit more effort and cost at first. That's why (for example) we've laid an underground water pipe out to where we're planning ...	2011-06-27
3232	Around and about Melksham in more pictures Yesterday, I took a walk around Melksham, and I took a whole lot of pictures. Most show features that may not have been photographed very often - for the record, if you like, and for giving thought to where the town may be in a number of years time. This "headline" picture shows equipment in the skateboard ...	2011-04-05

Yes, that's not common I know, but I'm delighted that they've provided an hour of free parking in at least one of the local car parks as part of the generally upward price revision last weekend.
