Hotels in Oxford - Prices and Reviews

As much as I love the idea of travelling and exploring the world I don't fancy the logistics of it, i.e. preparations, sorting everything out before we go, etc. That's probably because I bare some symptoms of OCD and freak out when things happen not the way I'd planned them.

On our way to Oxford from Reading we stoped at Henenly on Thames. We arrived in time to watch several of the womens rowing races.

We were just happy that he liked our essays! On Friday evening I went to a St. Anne's formal hall, which is a fancy sit-down dinner they have here...

A week in London and what didn't we do!! Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, the London Eye, the Tate. Oxford Street, the Gherkin, and saw Billy Elliot. Also saw Romeo and Juliette at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre and stood with the "penny-stinkers" with our elbows on the stage. Brilliant!

When we were peckish or flagging we got take-away...
