Rose & Crown Salisbury

Hello everybody <br><br>We are still alive and well. We are in Cambodia at the moment. Apoligies for not sending any travel blogs for a while. As we're are trying to do 2 blogs at the same time it has become too much to keep both of them going simultaneously, so this one has been neglected for a while. If any of you are interested in our travels I can add your email ...

... a couple of jobs, ski resort jobs, retail.. something a bit different to what I do. I did also apply for some computer jobs as well just to see how I go.. As yet nothing!! I'm just wondering if they disregard me because I haven't got my national insurance no yet.. ah well it should be here soon. I'm a bit miffed actually because some of the applications took a bit of time to do and they don't even have the curtesy to even acknowledge your application.<br><br ...

... and lots of families.<br><br>I did some shopping, always a good pick me up!! And took a long walk along the boardwalk.. all the beaches are quite nice around this area, they actually have sand BUT the water is freezing and no waves!! <br><br>The pier was interesting.. its quite an old structure and the pictures from the last century were amazing, everyone walking along in their suits and long ...

... and a cider at a pub! I walked in with my bike pants on and riding top.. looked a bit wild I think.. everyone just turned around and stared!! lol The lunch was huge.. big slices of ham off the bone, a bagette, salads and their home made relish.. yum but it was a long ride home!! And I nearly got run over.. lol. I went to dodge a squirrel running across the road, laughed and swirved to miss him and a car came around the corner just at the same ...

... instead.. lol. I still can't get over that they don't have huge shopping centres, everyone still has to walk between shops in the wet!<br><br>While I was there I had to work out how I was going to get from the railway to the catch the bus to the New Forest. My next port of call!<br><br>Southampton is also famous, well in the olden days ...

... that the cathedral is absolutely magnificent. At the very back is a memorial to the American soldiers who died in World War II, with a book encased in glass with the names of all who died. It was very moving. There were many other war memorials in the cathedral, as well as memorials to people who died in single battles, people who died in shipwrecks, and single nobles or generals.<br><br> Wanting to get the most for my money, I headed down into the crypt, where I ...

... front of a church (there everywhere over there) I took a deep breath ...and continued to cry about it all day. My poor travel parter. I tried my best not to let it ruin that day. How could I, I saw one of the Wonders of the World...gated, roped off, surrunded my fanny pack wearing tourists with audio devices (and yes, I was one...not the fanny pack, I wish, still waiting for that to come back into style...the audio was free, who am I to pass up anything free when I'm ...

... comfortable the space seemed, despite its appearance of formality. It is said that Mrs. Hussey lived in an upstairs apartment since her husband passed away in 1970, seldom using the ground floor except for family gatherings and functions. I would have loved to have spent one Christmas in this house, as it is what I imagine as a lovely and peaceful setting. The NT is just starting in the process of cataloging (and cleaning) everything in the house. So most of the rooms are not ...

Well, we woke up about 7:45am local time (that's about 1:45am CST)!! We started out on our big adventure to see Stonehenge about 9am. About halfway to Stonehenge, we stopped at a Service Center for breakfast. We all had pastries and coffee. Josh &amp; I shared 3 pastries, 2 lattes, and a bottle of water - the bill was £11.86 ($22USD). Mom &amp; Dad had 2 pastries, 2 coffees (yucky!), and a bottle of ...

I thought if I had the money, I'll buy a house in Bath...and go to the places around it. I think, if I were born there, I'd probably be a poet myself..even a painter...these places have such dramatic landscapes that it could really move you to do something Shakespearenic!
