Camping at Gower's Peninsular

Decided to take Gregory camping. Father-son bonding. Last minute decision to go to Gower's Peninsular, near Swansea in South Wales.

Arrived late, but there was space. Saw lots of families having fun.

Nice tents everywhere.

Then, we pitched ours and realised just small our tent is. Luckily, we had chosen a corner

Made dinner with solid fuel.

Beautiful sunset.

Rhossili Bay with "worm-head" in background.

If only it wasn't so cold, drizzling and low tide...

Developed tent envy. Went out to buy something like this. Likely, paid a fraction for it.

Watch this space, will go more places to camp.

The boys go to Oxford University...literally

Oxford Dictionary's definition of 'Literally': In its standard use literally means ‘in a literal sense, as opposed to a non-literal or exaggerated sense’.

Short day trip. Only an hour and a half away from Bristol. Brought only my 40mm lens, hence, pictures have poorer perspectives. Unfortunately, it was raining most of the time.


Took me a while to realise that Oxford University is a city campus, with buildings scattered all around the Oxford. I had wanted to vist the "enclosed university" after touring the town.





This building is called Radcliffe Camera. I found it while looking for a camera shop so that I could find spare lens cover.






Hopefully, they do come here for their tertiary education...in future...at government's expense of course.
