We travelled out to Oxford for the day, to meet up with my brother- and sister- in law. Oxford has the advantage of being lovely, as well as being about halfway between where they live (Leicester) and where we live (London). So we often meet up there... I used to live in Oxford, many moons ago, in my student days, so I have a great fondness for it. My sister-in-law hadn't been since she was a teenager, and as she's older than I am, it's been a few years for her! So we poked around a bit in the morning, then had some lunch, and poked around a bit more in the afternoon.
I've always loved the covered market - I think this produce stand has been there forever - there was certainly one in the same place when I lived there, and that was nearly 25 years ago.
And I'm sure the pigeons are simply descendents of the pigeons which always used to hang out there!
I spotted quite a few lovely doors this time around, in addition to more expected attractions, like the Radcliffe Camera,
...which had been yarn-bombed!
And what's Oxford without a photo with a number of bicycles in it!
