Jericho Street Fair

The Jericho Street Fair is always a great event and with the weather being very very kind this year the numbers attending were high.  Over the last couple of years one of the stable stall has been outside the Old Bookbinders, and it is the Crepe Stall, it is very popular not matter what time of the day you visit, and is a must for all those visiting the Fair.

Last Day Of Half Term

What a great way to spend the last day of Half Term, with friends in the sun on the banks of the River Thames.  We had great weather in Oxford today and everyone was out enjoying the sun and warmth, like this group of youth, out on there bikes along the river at Godstow Abbey. Long my this weather continue.

Bonn Week In Oxford

This week is Bonn Week in Oxford, Bonn in Germany is one of Oxford's sister cites and every uear there is a celebration of this twinning in the city.  The celebrations happen in Bonn Square and this there there was a market and live music at Gloucester Green.  Nice day for it as I think it was going to be the warmest day of the year, and the sun was out!  Had a nice Curry Wurst!

Crisp Night In Oxford City Centre

I don't often play around with the photo's on Oxford Daily Photo but todays photo I took all the colour out as I think it captures the temperature a little better.  It was a very crisp evening tonight, but I am hoping for better weather soon.

St John's Barge

Did anyone see St John's College Barge moored up against Christ Church meadow this afternoon for a private party?  Now that is what Bank Holidays are all about, Private parties on the River in your college barge! Not sure how many colleges have Barges?

Bonn Square Becomes Speakers Corner

Little bit of public open air debate happening in Bonn Square this afternoon.  It attracted a lot of passing  shoppers to stop and listen for a short time, and also there were a bout 5 police posted to the area.  This photo was taken at about 4pm and I was told that it had been going on since about 11am.  Not seen this in Bonn Square before.

Libbe

Long time visitors to Oxford Daily Photo will know that I have a fascination of number plates and what they all mean.  Today I spotted this one LI BBE which I think is a great plate, but I am not sure if the owner's name would be Li Bbe?  Perhaps Libby?

Carfax Tower With No Hands

I think the ever popular meeting point in the centre of Oxford, Carfax has lost it's clock and quarter bells for restoration.  Where is the closest public clock to Carfax?

Busy Oxford High Street

Like most city centre High Street, Oxford's seems to be always full of traffic no matter what time of the day it is.  This photo was taken this morning at 6:45am and already the place was a hive of activity with  rubbish trucks, delivery vans, buses and pedestrians all making an early start.
