A bouquet for the local authority. 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. I don't mind paying to park when I'm in town for a while, but the old charge of 25p for a few minutes to deposit a cheque at the bank or pick up a takeaway "rankled". And roadrage was prevelant around the Market Square where there were a few no charge / one hour spots.

Melksham's got a great range of services available and the previous parking charge structure discouraged their use. Let's hope that the recent changes encourage use of the facilities that we treasure.

Cait:	Count yourself lucky, Graham! Our village car park introduced a paid scheme last year. Granted, it's only the princely sum of 20p for an hour, but it does seem a little annoying when I spend more time faffing around with the meter than it would take me to pop into the post office and post an item!
