It was a trip to Salisbury today. Julie and I had a longish invite to visit my late uncle's widow Ann. She was his second wife after Lilla died in 1994. Ann and Ken were married in 1998 through to his death in 2020. It would have been his 95th birthday yesterday. We went by train, with a lovely 50 minutes connection time at Bristol Temple Meads, where the above image was taken. With our railcards the two day returns cost £40.30, a bargain of £10 each, each way. And I like train travel anyway. But a downside on a day like this is the weather. The rain was torrential, meaning the walk from Salisbury station to Ann's soaked us. Not to worry. We dried off, and had a good few hours chat, Adrian her son from her first marriage popped over to see us, and we rang dad as he'd not spoken to Ann for months. Julie and I both like Salisbury but it's very busy with traffic. A nice day though, and we do like the house Ann lives in, it's a terrace in a modern mews complex. Very relaxing and only five minutes walk from the Cathedral.
