Today was
"Party in the park" in Melksham, and I was running the joint
Save the Train /
Melksham Railway Development Group stand - setup from 11:30, open at 14:00, close at 18:00 ... and, yes, I enjoy this sort of thing.
As you can see, the weather smiled on us and I couldn't resist snapping this picture of "Brutus" - probably not his real name - enjoying a refreshing drink of water. I've many other pictures too, and snippets to write, but they can wait for the morning. Just for the moment, I want a relaxing cool down and a good night's sleep!
