We're a bit further to the west but DP hails from Salisbury, so we head back there for a weekend about once a month. Don't let DP know (we have a bit of hometown rivalry going on) but I love Salisbury - so many fantastic shops... whats that chocolate shop that has a cafe in the back of it? Snells? He took me there after meeting me from the train the first time that I went to visit...

Wellid (sp?) lives here here too.

of course youd have to avoid Finvbar if you moved LR...

waterbaby, where in the west are you?
Thanks for the tips on salisbury, Codswallop, I grew up in Bournemouth, so really miss the beach. My sister still lives there, so we do visit a lot. Part of the reason we always consider moving is that most of my immediate family live around the Dorset area.

Hello,

I live in Landford which is on the A36 southampton - salisbury road, just inside the Wiltshire border and about 10 miles from Salisbury town centre.

Will anyone be in Salisbury this friday daytime? We're visiting DP's dad, but DP is at a conference narby, so a chance to escape to the park or for a coffee somewhere would be bliss!
