| To spend some time with Tony and Paula, we stayed for a few days at the Old Mill in Harnham on the outskirts of Salisbury. Our room was the third window up on the left so we had a lovely view of the river. It was interesting to see the tide marks on the trees from the floods earlier in the year, level with the top of the arches over the mill race. there's an awful lot of water around Salisbury even at this time of the year. |

| The Church of St Thomas of Canterbury in Salisbury. Well worth a visit to see the Doom painting, the Angel roof and lots else. |

| The tomb of William Longespee (1226). He was the first person to be buried in the existing Cathedral. He was half-brother to King John and was present at the 1215 Magna Carta negotiations. |
 |
| There is a huge font situated in the centre of the nave, reflecting the arches and roof in the surface of the water. It is quite spectacular and not a little spooky! |
 |
| Recently-shorn sheep grazing in the meadows, but where is the boy who looks after the sheep? |
