winter trip to Salisbury...

,

Last week my boyfriend and I went to Salisbury for a little holiday :smile: This was the place we stayed at while we were there, a 13th century thatched cottage in Dorset! http://www.thecompassesinn.com/

The pub there was so cosy, they had fairy lights up and a log fire crackling away in the corner, it smelled to good! There were little booths with candles and lanterns for each table, and the food was absolutely amazing, old fashioned English pub food. I had the best fish and chips I have ever had in my life! I also had the best breakfast ever of smoked salmon and scrambled eggs.

The room we stayed in was just above the pub, and had a really low wooden beamed ceiling and hobbit sized door frames. We had to try to remember not to hit our heads on them all the time! :smile:





back in Salisbury!

Yesterday was my traveling day, returning to Salisbury after my (very fast!) week at home in Edinburgh with my family. I was whisked away from Bristol airport and eventually arrived back in Salisbury late at night, after a little three hour detour through Ikea, and a few wrong turnings along the one and a half hours of dark un-signposted roads back to Salisbury :wink:

It's so much warmer down here than it is in Scotland! There's none of the frost and ice and snow i've been surrounded by this last week. I have only another two weeks until it is time to go back up north again for xmas :smile: My sister and Eilidh are now back in Italy too. I probably won't see them again for another 6 months though :frown:
