It amazes me how these things go on facebook and you have to wonder why is someone filming & not helping ? <br />My mother & I were blown over by a strong gust of wind once ( neither of us stick thin either ) and a couple tried to scurry past us until a girl came out of a bakery & enlisted their help to get us up; my mother had fallen on top of me so I cushioned her fall !<br /><br />Mum took me to stay in student digs when I was really young - London I think. You've given me the idea now to book a mini break over the summer... umm which city though ?BadPennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09889591351222591488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-74882821337502001.post-55254764467889969752016-04-02T00:17:21.965-07:002016-04-02T00:17:21.965-07:00I love your descriptions of Oxford college life, F...I love your descriptions of Oxford college life, Fran, especially how they sleep in gowns and mortar boards.
