This weekend SJF (yes, I think I've forgotten to tell you that we are back together...maybe a story for another time) and I went with my students to Stratford-Upon-Avon, the Cotswolds and Oxford. Despite the fact that we found ourselves caught in a bit of rain (mostly in the Cotswolds), these were such idyllic and beautiful places. We stayed in the evening and saw the Royal Shakespeare Company perform King Lear in an absolutely amazing production. It was a great weekend and I am really looking forward to the next time I get to visit.








The RSC just fills me with awe! And that's what Engkand does best IMO, the little villages and towns that seem stuck in time, oblivious to the skyscrapers etc all around them.
