Salisbury has a lot to recommend it, but the train service isn't one of the main things.<br /><br />Eloh, I think I should have my own private carriage with a silken litter to lie on. And a selection of tasty snacks. And a puppy.<br /><br />DameEmma, yes. Pounds. I've had cars that cost me less. I try not to think what else I could be spending the money on (holidays, home improvements, jewellery....)livesbythewoodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13660484415596484648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1595674746798792040.post-22501063155200371152009-11-02T22:08:33.504+00:002009-11-02T22:08:33.504+00:00WHAT? and that's in POUNDS?

This was a real shock as I come from somewhere where we liked to complain about the train service, but in retrospect, really had very little about which to complain.<br />I feel for you!<br />(this is my first time commenting on your blog, but I have been reading and enjoying it for several months now)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
