Old Sarum

Sam and I visited the Old Sarum near Salisbury yesterday. It was raised by the Iron age people in about 500 BC. A castle once stood on these grounds but as a Cathedral was built in Salisbury the Castle was abandoned and demolished. Only a few remains can be seen today.

Vet Nursing

I started my new Vet Nursing job this week in Sidcup, Kent. It is a lovely practice, very busy with 1 vet (3 nurses). I am lucky enough to be living above the practice in a 2 bedroom flat. **Please note** the blue sky doesnt happen often :)

The Speller's

Pat and Dave are Mum's friends from when she did her OE in the UK. They live very close to where I am working and have been very kind to have me around to there beautiful home in Hextable, Kent. I have even being going to see local theatre with them.

Salisbury

Sam and I went and had a look around Salisbury last week. It is a medieval town located only 20minutes from us.
Salisbury Cathedral is very famous for having the tallest spire in Britain. Unfortunately it is having some reconstruction so photos don't look great but the inside was amazing!
