Sorry about some camera clicks and wind noise on this slightly shaky video. I need a better camera. Posted anyway as it captures something of a pleasant hour spent at the Oxford botanical garden. It is easily found on a short trip to Oxford, just opposite Magdalen College where C S Lewis studied and taught, close to the historic centre of this marvellous city.

Lots of students with their sandwiches and laptops sitting or lying under shady trees.

Every city needs a place of quiet beauty like this near its heart.
