Oxford, Days 21 - 23


How's it?
We dropped into Oxford over the weekend and stayed with Megan's cousin Karen which was pretty cool and we even found a familiar street! (photo to follow...)
Also, it appears that I have now got myself a job. It's in Kent at a place called Graves End (... pause for effect). It's a job that a mate of mine used to have (Nice one Chalmers) before he goes on to bigger, better and more permanent things. It's only three days a week but the rate is good so it's worth it (Liam - it pays heaps better than pushing pills, the legal ones any way).
Megan's now going to take you through a bit more detail of Oxford.
Peace out

Hi guys!
Well, what can I say - Oxford was brilliant. It was very nice to breathe some fresh air after a couple of weeks in London.
We didn't get to see everything we wanted to see but it was still good. Unfortunately when we went to check out Christchurch College (the most spectucular of the colleges) it had closed 3 minutes earlier so we'll have to head back there at some point.
We were very proud when we found a display in a pub which described Bob Hawke's yard glass sculling record. I felt so patriotic, it brought a tear to my eye!
We also went punting on the river which was fantastic - you are basically in a little rowboat type thing which one person controls by pushing a stick down to the bottom of the river and then bringing the stick up and using it to steer. Lots of fun and I was actually quite OK at it :-)
Had better be off but we'll keep you updated with our adventures soon.
Megan
