Quick note to those of us that route from the South.....
Two sets of roadworks....
1.) Northbound out of Calne, Portemarsh Road is closed between the 1st two roundabouts by the trading estate. Diversion through the trading estate is signed (not very well on the return Southbound).
2.) Roadworks at the roundabout at the top end of Royal Wootton Bassett high street. Traffic lights in place. Nightmare on a Saturday morning.

Popped in first thing with Bill Dean and Kevin, only one other car there when we arrived, saw an Atlas 747 loitering around from Kemble so guess that was the inbound from PIK
