Just back from a little travel trip to Wales, which was great fun, hence no blogging yesterday.
Back here in Oxford now and I took my usual walk around the University Parks to see what is happening out there in the world! As always, the Parks never fail to lift the spirit and delight in nature. I am lucky in that the Parks are just behind my house and so walking over the bridge, stopping en route to feed the ducks and swans, passing Parson's Pleasure, a popular spot for me to pack a bottle of champagne, smoked salmon and watch the punts glide past, I reach the Parks. The Parks belong to the University, hence their name and are managed by the University. The River Cherwell flows through and is a magnet for punts, picnic parties, sports events as there are tennis courts, cricket pitches and rugby fields. The Rainbow Bridge is a popular place for jumpers in the summer who want to cool off in the River; not strictly allowed, but 'it's only a bit of fun' as Rob Brydon used to say.
More on the Parks tomorrow............................ so watch this space.
