    Wow! I don't know how you guys do it! I am exhausted just looking at your marvellous images Derek!

    Unlike Trefor, I have never been to Oxford but have been to Windsor many times, although not recently. The last time there was about 20 years ago when I was invited to attend the annual Garter ceremony inside the castle.

    Gosh! Is the Rumney Folk Festival really only a month away? See you all then.

    Take care,
    Ham.

    Thanks so much for sharing the fabulous pictures! Makes we want to hop the next plane!
    Having never been to England or Scotland, I am somehow getting the impression that touring there is EXTREMELY thirsty work!! Seriously, looks like you had a great time - thanks for taking us along with your pics!

    What wonderful memories your photos bring back, especially of Oxford and the years we spent there. Thanks.
