A Rainy Day in Oxford

I'm too tired to write a blog. Besides I have aq copy of Stephen King's "11-23-63" which I would rather read.


Tomorrow we head for London  to turn in the car. We've been staying in the village of Chipping Norton near Oxford.


We saw Oxford, Tolkien's house, C.S. Lewis's house and Blenheim Castle which is quite nearby.


We are staying at the Crown and Cushion, which was once owned by Keith Moon of The Who.


We've been taking our evening meals in a pub which was established in 1683. I think that is before Columbus discovered America. The Steak and Ale pie is very good there.
