I live in a beautiful country and a beautiful area of that country. I've appreciated it for many years and always hankered after more time to explore ... I use to dream of writing a series of books "Within about an hour" which would give me the opportunity to look around further in our own locale, exploring hidden places off the beaten track that could be reached within an elastic 60 minutes.
With customers visiting us on
training courses in Melksham, and with our new
content management system to help, I've been able to take a whole fistful of pictures this Spring and document them ... start in our home town of
Melksham and explore from there. Last Wednesday, it was a great pleasure to walk in the evening with a could of fit customers along the
canal and stop at a pub for a meal and a pint. Thank you, Lisa, for driving out to collect the three of us after your evening meeting!
This weekend, we've ventured ever so slightly further afield in the last 36 hours, and I would like to share some pictures with you. These aren't, realistically, places you would make in the evening after a course but come down a day earlier, or stop into the weekend that follows, and you'll find they're almost on the doorstep.
