Radley to Oxford

March 1st and a beautiful walk along the Thames to Oxford on the first day of Spring with Natasha, Raja and Ray. It was also St David's day and we stopped for lunch in the Isis just south of Oxford. The pub had just been taken over and the only thing on the menu was Leek and Potato soup with bread and butter
Swan on the Thames near Radley boathouse
The river water was still pretty cold
'HMS Smiley' A couple of minutes before this photograph was taken we watched a ghost train pass over this rusting bridge which links to the Cowley car plant in the suburbs of Oxford The next bridge also had some nice fractal inspired graffitti
There was a strong political theme to the graffitti. On the wall opposite this tag "MAKE MILLIONAIRES HISTORY" was emblazened in 30 ft long letters
