We had packed a suitcase - deciding to share one between us - and we left work, heading straight to Oxford after we finished at 15:30. The weather was chilly and wet - the rain hammered down REALLY hard on the car as we travelled along the main roads towards Oxford. Our route ended up taking us zig-zag
ging our way there, which meant we were in and out of the stormy front...although mostly it rained! The Radio was playing the Beatles hits all the way - from 5pm it was the "Beatles Bank Holiday". I'm not a huge fan, but actually it was quite nice, and I learned that I knew more songs and more words to their songs than I thought I did!

We settled ourselves in at around 18:20, having a shower and unpacking, before going downstairs for dinner at 19:30 - they functioned as a restaurant and a pub, and we ate in the restaurant, and the food was delicious - I had a Chicken salad, while Mathew had Fish and Chips.
