Something strange seems to have happened in Chippenham.

Last evening I was checking the web site for the Chippenham Model Railway Exhibition which takes place at Sheldon Sports Centre on October 2.

There is a helpful link to Google Maps to show visitors how to find the venue and I'm glad I checked. The Sports Centre seems to have moved into the former maths block at Sheldon School. That will disrupt lessons.

Worse was to follow. I soon realised that major changes have been made in the Monkton Park area. The Olympiad has moved to Monkton House on the other side of the park and Wiltshire Council have been forced out on to the grass by the river. The building which used to house their offices is now Monkton Park Golf Course.

At least there is nearby shelter for the staff who have been evicted. All they must do is stroll along to the Town Bridge where they will find that The Red Lion public house has thoughtfully been transferred from Lacock.

I wonder if I can help by painting some new signs. I could easily get the paint from Focus DIY now they have moved to a pedestrian island in Emery Road, which used to be Ivy Lane.

They must have been forced out by Sainsbury's which now occupies their former building. Perhaps Sainsbury's wanted smaller premises after Somerfield moved into an office block at the bottom of Monkton Hill and Morrison's transferred their business to a unit at the end of Vincients Road on the Bumpers Farm Industrial Estate.

I must wander into town in the morning to find out what else has moved. After all, surely Google Maps can't be wrong?
