Thread Name: Salisbury Cathedral
Subject: RE: Salisbury Cathedral
i recall visiting salisbury cathedral a few years ago while on vacation in the uk. its a magnificant example of an old british church. we were going to stone henge and avebury and things around--white horse hill. after my wife lamented on sillbury haill"well we climbed another great honking hill to look at a another pile of rocks i agreed to tour the town.   

old sarum is also nice--where the previous town and cathedral. there was a history day there with ancient medieval napoleonic and world war one soldiers amd cultures. a lot of fun. one medieval fellow remined me of latin class in high school. he showed us how to add suntract and multiply and divide using roman numerals. i had to do exams on that as a boy, but i had forgotten untill then.

salisbury is a very pretty town
