In Oxford we stayed in one of the colleges - Lady Margaret Hall - in the student accommodation. That was a bit of a reminder of how soft we have become since we were at university. We did have a bathroom, but it was slightly smaller than an aircraft toilet but still managed to include a shower! We had a quieter time in Oxford, because Sue was attending a conference there.

| Part of the Lady Margaret grounds. The brown lawn is infected with a grub, and also being dug up by badgers and moles. |

| There are nice big parks nearby. |

| The Bridge of Sighs - a replica of the original in Venice. |

| Ready for dinner at The Crown. They say Shakespeare used to stop here. |

| And this was where J.R.R. Tolkein and C.S. Lewis used to drink! |
