Salisbury
I visited Salisbury this afternoon.
It was free to park.
It’s only a very small part of the city that is cordoned off. 99% of the shops are open for business.
It was very quiet.
It’s a great shame for the business owners if their trade is badly damaged.
I bought a few books and things.
It’s also a lovely city to walk around with great architecture and very pleasant open spaces.
The police standing guard around the cordon looked pretty bored.
I really hope that things return to normal very soon.
