Staines revisited

It was good to revisit Jackie and Eric at the Thameside home, for a few hours prior to catching a taxi to nearby Heathrow.

We went for a walk in the threatening weather, to the lock just down the river and watched the long low narrow river boats.



Oxford

Our last day for an excursion, so we went by train to Oxford and spent most of the day on top of a sight seeing bus, dodging heavy showers. Christ Church Cathedral is awe inspiring.



Who's the dummy?
