Not quite so easy to put in photos etc just yet. We are staying in London, spending lots of time with Melissa & Tim, had a lovely evening with Patrick & Annabel on Friday.
Yesterday we arrived in Dorchester-on-Thames, a village just south of Oxford. The rivers Thame & Thames meet here. Cousin Chris organised a big family reunion of Litrizza and Murphy clans. Great to catch up with cousins, many of whom I had not seen for decades, as well as those who come to Australia.
We had a good lunch, Mass for a few at 6.30. Those who remained for the night went to a pub for dinner 4 miles away. The clever ones went in a car, the rest followed Chris' firm encouragement to walk down along by the river, through several fields full of a variety of animal life:-bulls who wanted to follow us to the pub, picnickers who had moored their boats at the banks, skinny dippers (we think we might have interrupted some other activity), and other happy campers. Of course we had to walk back, this time along the road as it was dark.Nearly got swiped off the road by a few mad drivers, but survived! Photos later.
