Lucky William


While up in the dizzy heights of Salisbury Cathedral last weekend we spotted this bit of graffiti, it's quite well known and refers to a worker that fell from scaffolding at this location back in the 1800's Of course everyone assumes that a fall from this height must surely have killed the poor chap but apparently not, on the way down he got snagged on a projecting piece of stone and didn't break a single bone! Someone dug up the following report from the local paper at the time,


Lucky old William!
