Saturday 13 September
We skipped breakfast this morning and headed straight into town for my final morning at the conference. Near to the main venue there was a deli that made good coffee and sold even better croissants.
I left Pauline and headed to the lecture theatre for the last time. I was not surprised that most delegates had left Oxford or were giving this last morning a miss. However, the mighty Australian contingent of four doggedly stuck it out ’til the end.
Whilst we were receiving pearls of wisdom, – Pauline was off booking a tour of the colleges and my place on a tour of the Bodleian Library. Below are images of the library found on the web.
End of conference
When the conference finished finished we met up and went back to the hotel to pack and have a quick lunch. before returning to the city centre for our tours.
Pauline had a great time and here are some photo’s snapped along the way. Trevor, We’ll need your help to identify the various colleges and churches. So please have your answers ready.
Some of the above places were used when filming Harry Potter films. So, extra marks for correct identification of those locations.
Cotwolds
On Friday 12th Pauline went on a day tour of the Cotswolds and here are some of her photos.
Today I’m loving…
Finding self service supermarket checkouts, complete with touch screen, laser bar code scanner and credit card slot. Naomi, this next photo is especially for you. You would have loved it.![]()

Angela, interesting that you say “pretend” – did you not know that Neil was a check out chick in his young spunky days?
