Here it is. It was so quiet and peaceful, with local Oxfordians lying under the shade of the trees, walking their dogs and generally going about their business. Not a group of foreign students in sight. It's been a good few years since I sat in the long grass with a member of the opposite sex, but it's still as much fun when you're an old fart as it was back then.
Then, dinner with the Provost in his lodgings. Champagne in the garden before dinner...
