Carnival   It's only Tuesday, and yet Saturday seems an age away. We were in the town that claims to be the home of the largest illuminated carnival in the world (or I think that's what they said) and there were statues of Guy Fawkes inside and out.Both statues proudly celebrated 400 years of the gunpowder plot, and were in Guy Fawkes home town of Bridgwater, Somerset. Should one celebrate so infamous an event? Remember the anniversary of a tragedy for sure, but in what way? A phone call last night reminded me that on 17th April, it will be 40 years to the day since the rail services were withdrawn from Devizes, Melksham, Holt and many other stations in the area. Melksham was restored in 1985 but seems threatened again and I find myself wondering just what to do on Easter Monday ... a long way from the carnival atmosphere in which I started this post (written 2006-03-07, updated 2006-06-09) Associated topics are indexed under Z212 - Public Holidays and festivals[3513] Olympic Torch - dates and places in Wiltshire in 2012 - (2011-11-08) [3360] Melksham Carnival, 2011 - pictures - (2011-07-17) [3207] Lambing at Lackham - (2011-03-19) [3191] Date of the Census (which month and day?) - (2011-03-03) [3062] Melksham Carnival - getting ready for 2011 - (2010-11-20) [2875] A long day in Melksham ... - (2010-07-17) [2671] Melksham - Carnival, Party in the Park, and Spot the Oddity - (2010-03-11) [2656] Melksham Carnival - (2010-02-28) [2498] Remembrance Sunday 2009, Melksham - (2009-11-08) [2298] Melksham Carnival Parade - the people - (2009-07-19) [2297] Standing on the corner, Melksham Carnival - (2009-07-19) [1770] 3 hours from Milton Keynes - (2008-08-24) [1631] Looking back through some photos - (2008-05-04) [1540] Chinese New Year - (2008-02-15) [1269] Party in the Park - review - (2007-07-17) [1209] Where did the Bank Holiday go? - (2007-05-29) [429] Charlie on Monday - (2005-08-30) [131] Thanksgiving dinner - (2004-11-26) [35] Autumn arrives right on time - (2004-09-01) [30] Bank Holiday - (2004-08-27)
