Oxford

7/07

Another cousin S arrived from Liverpool. He is doing his masters and he took a break to come visit us. We met him at the bus station. He went back to my aunts to freshen up. W and I then strolled around Oxford. For someone expecting a campus that is separate from the rest of the town, Oxford is surprisingly in its layout. Departments, shopping complexes, houses and apartments are all on the same street.

W was really tired and totally disinterested as I pointed out the sights. We called a halt to our stroll and repaired to a coffee shop and indulged in some people watching.

In the evening, we went to an outlet mall nearby and W bought a shirt for herself.

We came back home and opened up a champagne bottle. A made bhajji's and we had a good time. In the night, after U had hit the sack W, S, A and I talked into the wee hours of the morning cracking up often usually at U's expense.

We went to bed around 2 and had to get up at 8 to make the trip to Stratford-upon-Avon the next day.
