Playing Robin Hood

With breakfast in Oxford and dinner in York. But no walking along Hadrian’s wall on the way to Nottingham!
Woke up normal work time, but instead got ready to go away on holiday! First off to Oxford so left early to avoid the worst of the traffic. The drive wasn’t too painful – a bit of traffic around the M1 on the M25 but got off just before the major snarl around the M40. A bit of traffic just before the park and ride outside Oxford, but in Oxford in good time. We used the park and ride and were having breakfast a bit after 9 by St Edmunds College. Picked up a friend and off to York.
Long boring drive up to York (we were just doing the ‘get to the city’ thing). Got checked in the Hazelwood – very nice. A cup of tea and a relax and tonight we’re off to find real beef and yorkshire pudding for friend from the US!
