When they go thru Calne only one of them is listed as from Calne. Yet I know of a Calne person who is running a leg in another town.. :-/
Re: The olympic Torch in Chippenham
Hardly anyone is running in thier home town, seems a shame really.
We rambled up to Frome Rd from the office yesterday lunchtime to see it go through Trowbridge. Couldn't believe the amount of official vehicles & stuff going through ahead of the torch.
Lots of bike coppers from every force going between Devon & Cornwall through to the Met! :D

I was speaking with a council official today and apparently, due to security reasons no one was allowed to run with the torch through their home town. And all council staff who were stewarding the events were required to produce their passports.
Is it just me? - I don't really get the logic behind these measures - perhaps someone can explain?
