Well we got back from Germany in one piece, had a day off then picked up our Avis hire car then off to the West. The weather has not been cooperative at all, cold and damp. Evidence you say well cope this! Yes, that is the Uffington White horse, visible from about twenty meters. The most sensible place to be is somewhere warm and dry.

It took a little while, but we found somewhere.
Had some nice pigeon breast for Lunch. We have been sticking to the side roads most of the time just to soak up the scenery. The distances travelled are really quite short, but then the daylight is also in short supply as well.

Much to Gil's annoyance we didn't spend much time in Oxford. It was too cold and damp to spend much time on foot. Oh, bye the way If anyone hears me complain about roundabouts back home they have my permission to give me a good kicking. We have encountered roundabouts nesting in roundabouts, with traffic lights in them. I'm not sure who is responsible for the Oxford ring road, but the parliamentary forces will never find their way in. Mind you, the Royalists will never find their way out either.
