I am going to be slightly expansive here. Thank you for this delightful walk around Worcester College, and most especially their magnificent garden with it`s lake - if I recall correctly Worcester is the only Oxford college with a lake !!! During my many decades as an Oxford academic, I only had a few occasions to visit, but their gardens are absolutely splendid. I particularly appreciated you lingering with the swans :) Sadly, having retired to New Zealand ( my late wife`s idea ) I have experienced the distressing fact that every year thousands of water fowl are shot are shot out of the sky, and even on the rivers - just for fun !!!!!!! In the UK, ducks and swans swim towards people ( possible treats ? ) whereas in NZ, water birds flee away at the very sight of humans - very sad and disappointing :( Anyway, thank you again - beautiful walk, in every regard - well done !!!
