At Carfax on the Saturday morning there were several morris sides in action. It had been so long since Ruth was here in her home town that we thought this might happen every week as part of the very evident improvements to environment and quality of life; but it was - we later discovered - the Oxford Folk Festival. Many and varied singers, dancers and players strolled round with or without dogs and tankards! A very English phenomenon - which we would suddenly encounter as we went to three building societies, Primark, Bhs, Nandos, Sainsburys etc etc.
On Sunday we took Chloe and Chris for a roast dinner and then the Oxford Tube to London - (just 6 sterling single for Bob as a Senior! ) These were Good Times!
