Oxford

Amazing weekend up in Oxford:

FRIDAY
Finished my workshop and made it out of town just in time to avoid the worst of the traffic.

Went to Red bar near the station and met L and some of his work friends.

Went to Malmaison with L - ate Pigeon. Drank absurd wine.

Went upstairs to the gorgeous bar - would highly recommend it to anyone although unsurprisingly not very cheap. back to L's - incredible whisky called Bruicladdich or something - soft Islay malt.

SATURDAY
Strolled into town and met N.

Walked about in the sun and then went back to N's. Met his flatmates.

Lounged about but entertainingly so.

Went into town and met some Norwegians. Then my my mate T and her friends. Pub crawled as the licenses closed. Finally ended up watching a man apolgise and puke at the same time in a pub called the Blenheim. Filthy. Back to N's after pointless and mistaken bus trip to Abingdon. Almost abandoned in the rain but held on for cab back.

SUNDAY
Went into town with N and then coffee in the Ashmolean, followed by Pork with my Mum, Dad and grandfather. Very nice.

Staggered back home to find that we'd drawn with Sunderland. Arse.
