West Wilts Railway Users Group and trains to Lacock

Some of the telephone enquiries we get these days are more than interesting - Lisa took a call the other day looking for a Mr [name deleted] who's name appears within some test data on our web site; it appears that the gent who phoned was owed quite a bit of money by the person named in our data. A pity from the caller's viewpoint that he had found just test data, with the forename of one course delegate and the surname of another put together for test purposes.

A phone call asking for details of how to get by train to Lacock is also memorable; Lisa explained we were a training company, then proceeded to help, explaining to the caller that although the railway line passes Lacock there isn't a station, and that the caller would have to transfer to the bus in Chippenham complete with a walk across the town.

And yesterday, I took a call looking for the web site of the West Wilts Rail Users Group. Ah - I know the answer to that one too; they're working towards having a web site, but don't have one yet. And, yes, I did put my caller - the local radio station - in touch!

Such are the day to day pleasures and incidents of having a prominent web site!
