Keble College, Oxford

For the last 3 nights of our trip, we are staying at one of the colleges - Keble. Huge red-brick, Gothic monster. This morning had breakfast in the Great Hall (largest in Oxford) - it's like dining in the British Parliament. Unlikely to see Ed Milliband et al, but any minute expect Harry Potter with swotty specs to come swooping in.

Avebury and surrounds - at "summer" solstice

London various

Buildings including the Princess Louise where I worked as a barmaid about 27 years ago. Just the same, but now with posh food. Opposite was/is My Old Dutch where we used to hang out with the guys who made the pancakes...
And Selfridges on Oxford St where apparently my mum's parents met. I owe my existence to that Dept store...
People: my auntie Mo and uncle Jim. Cousin David Lockett and Thea.
