Meeting up with some old friends in Salisbury on Sunday. None of us know it well but it is mutually "half-way".

No children (eek).

Where can we have a nice lunch? We're all on the train.

Is that the french place hf? Haven't been for ages, but when I lived in Salisbury it really was the crappest place for eating out.

What sort of food would you like?

There is a nice contemporary Indian near the Station.

Also a nice Thai near the Cathedral.

The normal ASK. Strada.

For Pubs 'The Haunch of Venison' near the Market Place is good.

There is a really lovely pub just outside Salisbury called the Ship Inn at Burcombe. They do really good food and really good children's menu and also v accommodating with children but recommend you book.

There was a decent little Italian restaurant just upstairs from Boots, afraid I can't remember what it was called.

Thanks. It's very exciting having a leisurely lunch without small people to entertain. So we will definitely NOT be going to pizza express or ask wink.

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face, , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin, , type [grin] or :o
For a wink, , type [wink]

For an embarrassed face, , type [blush]
For a sad face, , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face, , type [envy]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
