Oxford

12th July

Here we are again. Moored opposite the still not started Jericho wharf . We were hoping this new development would have been opened by now but it seems there are still local problems. The footbridge over to Jericho is closed for repairs so we took the long route to The Bookbinders for dinner. Still our favourite pub.
This is not a quiet mooring, the church clock sounds the hour and the trains shunt and the towpath is always busy with people heading for the city center and the station but it is a good position . We drank rather too much on this warm evening and staggered back to the boat. Our Geordie neighbours were friendly and thrilled with their week long holiday and we spoke to another couple who were moored waiting for family members to join them. They tipped us off to another good pub in town, but I think we will stick to the ones we like.


Bookbinders unique atmosphere

when will work start?
