Reference to how small the city of Salisbury social community is. In other words everyone knows everyone else and nights out become repetitive because you never meet new
people or go to new clubs/
bars. Weekends become samey, dull and montonous.
This is made worse by the lack of alternative evening activities apart from clubbing/drinking.
The reference is not limited to weekends and clubbing. It may stem from the notion that Salisbury is 'a city amongst the countryside'. There are no nearby cities and therefore Salisbury is
like a bubble because
people rarely bother to travel elsewhere.
Small - lisbury
Spelt with
one 'l' resembling the city name - Smalisbury
