oxford and Burns' Night

Yesterday we went to Oxford for the day - just on a whim. We spent some time wondering around, weaving between students, tourists and shoppers. It was very, very busy. I was impressed by the earnestness of some of the snatched conversations I overheard from the students. Also relieved by the silliness of some of the other conversations I also overheard.

We had a nice lunch and wandered some more although it did get quite cold!

Today is Burns’ Night so Jase and I are preparing a haggis supper of Haggis, tatties and neeps. I have peeled the potatoes but Jase is in charge of the rest. Being a Scot it is only fair he takes the lead! I hope to finish off the evening with some shortbread and whisky!
