Modern Art Oxford is a kind of weird and "out-there" art museum in the centre of Oxford, but I suppose that is what you expect from modern art museums. You never know what you are going to get when you visit, and if you will even "get" it.  However, I would say it's definite…

Before anyone gets too worried and throws their arms up - these are last year's bluebell photos! 

Last year we took these lovely, fun bluebell photos in our local woods but I never got around to posting them.  They sat on a SD card, waiting to be sorted out! 

So we're taking advantage of COVI…

I know these lifestyle snaps are not that interesting to anyone else but me, but at the end of the day I like it! 

We took these photos on a dog walk around Blenheim Palace- and you might notice that they have only Tilly in them.  That's because Hetty was on holiday with my Mum so Tilly was gett…

Most people don't realise that one of the best walks in Oxfordshire is actually free!  That's right, walking around the beautiful grounds of Blenheim Palace is free! 

The grounds are known as Blenheim Park and there are plenty of dog walks and paths around the place to explore. 

So here are a…

Did you know that the botanic gardens at the University of Oxford is the oldest botanic garden in the whole of the UK? 

It's one of the oldest scientific gardens in the world, being founded in 1621.  Isn't that crazy?! 

I visited the Botanic Gardens a couple of months ago, I had no idea it wa…

It's been a few months since I've shared some Hetty the dachshund pictures, and I know that's what you all want to really see. 

A couple of weeks ago we went to Blenheim Palace for a dog walk and it was in full Autumn glory!  

You might notice a slightly different look and feel of these p…

Blenheim Palace is an iconic location in Oxfordshire - one of the largest country homes in England.  Built in the 18th Century, there is loads to see and do there - from standalone events and the year-long sights. 

This summer was the first time we visited the palace; we went with Matty's family…

I know I have mentioned this before, but a visit to Kirtlington Park Polo Club is probably the best free day out in Oxfordshire! 

The polo season may be over, but I thought I would share it with you before I forget. 

Kirtlington Park Polo Club is a very busy polo club, which holds events and matches …

A typically unseasonal post, but a small note to summer before we all enter Christmas mode...

A stuttering fan the only sound 
Sticky skin now peeling red

Pleading for the weekend

Rain.
