Black people are racist
Cheers. Nice and informative. I kept expecting you to say 'cushty'
@@choboutube . Many thanks for taking the time out to watch our Oxford edition & sincere thanks for the feedback greatly appreciated. Yeah “ cushty “ never really been in my vocab! All the best. Rich Jones Tour Guides Travel Guides.
How can someone keep this much information about different cities and towns. I don't know much about my own town let alone the cities and towns of other regions. Impressive!
Thanks Omar. I have been doing this awhile...and I'll admit, I'm a generalist, not a specialist!
Tour Guides Travel Guides Even if for a while it's still very impressive because History is not like Maths that you will get better with time and practice. It's either you know the history or not and You sir certainly knows alot of it. Looking forward to your next video. Cheers!
Cheers!

I've "crossed the pond", am at Oxford furthering my genealogical research while my wife & youngest daughter, both Dartmouth College Graduate students, are attending summer classes, at Exeter College, in the centuries old student exchange program between Dartmouth College and University of Oxford.
I'm a direct descendent of the Earls Of Pembroke, namesake of 400 years old Pembroke College, University of Oxford(closed year'round to public access) where I have been most warmly welcomed through their hallowed main gates. Powerful stuff to me, and it resonates to my core. I am so very thankful to be here; through gritted teeth, thankful those Nazi bastards failed to bomb out this world heritage site.
I also wish to express my gratitude for your video(s) which have opened the doors, literally, to my past. I've beheld the book written by my cousin of 11 generations ago Sir Francis Bacon, which resides in a special display next to the works of Shakespeare in the Bodleian Library. I've quaffed pints in the same pubs frequented by the many Oxford graduates within my families. I am in awe!
Please, if you would, join me the first weekend of September in Brussels, for the annual BBW(Belgian Beer Weekend) and the sacred event of the "Blessing of the Beer Barrel", where we'll raise a glass(read several) in honor of my 39th GreatGrandFather Bishop Saint Arnould de Metz(582-640), PATRON SAINT OF BREWING. BCNU Soon!?
Gunwrites , many thanks for taking the time out to watch our Oxford edition & also thanks for your feedback, greatly appreciated. Sadly I must decline your kind offer to join you celebrating Belgian Beer Week in Brussels, I have prior commitments 1st week in September , maybe another time. My best wishes to you and also to the Patron Saint of beer . Rich Jones Tour Guides Travel Guides.
Very well made video :) thks from Italy :)
Nuncio , thanks for the kind words, greatly appreciated. Rich Jones Tour Guides Travel Guides
Wow
Thanks very much
Great video and production. I’m coming tomorrow and haven’t really planned anything. oops, do you have any recomendations on good things to do with not much budget, walking and eating are our main hobbies… thanks.
Kelly May, many thanks for taking the time out to watch our Oxford edition & sincere thanks for the feedback greatly appreciated. On a limited budget I would suggest move away from the main drag on the corn market & shopping center & wander the back streets exploring the colleges, Christchurch meadows. The museum’s are mainly free, if you want to go into Christchurch itself there is a fee & I would definitely pre book as that seems to be the norm everywhere these days. Food wise I would suggest Oxford market or go & see my friend Hamid at Cafe Crème on Broad street for the best coffee & panini in town. Hope this helps. Rich Jones Tour Guides Travel Guides.
Sorry it’s Hakim at cafe Crème
That was so interesting. Visiting Oxford first the first time on Thursday - any recommendations as to where to park?
Bessie, many thanks for taking the time out to watch our Oxford edition & sincere thanks for the feedback greatly appreciated. It has been a couple of years since I was last there with a car, however, I believe the Worcester street car park near the station is still in operation. We used that for about a week & it was very reasonably priced & secure & also a short walk into town. Hope this helps & enjoy your visit, let me know how you get on . Best wishes.

Thankyou so much for your reply
Can you upload in 720p at least ?
Kirat, I am sorry that I don't know what that means.
@@TourGuidesTravelGuides He means the quality of the video
Some of the places highlighted shown here...
ruclips.net/video/OtGoB7TVbTM/видео.html - great song too!
the best cleaning method of stone is slow water
The book above the entrance of the School of Theology. reads 'To find oneself (himself -Jesus-) seating amongst [one's] teachers' Luke 2,20-21 and 2,40-52.
First, thank you for taking the time out to watch our Oxford edition. Most importantly, thank you for the correction. As far as I recall, many years ago it was a local Oxford guide that gave me that story; however, I feel that yours is the correct translation. Again, many thanks. Best wishes!
Do you want to employ me, cos I know Oxford like the back of my hand ? AND I’m distantly related to Joseph Knibb - the clockmaker - Wadham College eat your heart out !!!
My dad has a tessera he brought back from Palmyra in the Ashmoleum museum !
And I could tell you about an affair my dad nearly had with a woman whose father had a car mechanics garage which is now part of Brown’s restaurant!
Shakespeare’s bastard Sir William Davenant the first poet laureate , and The Painted Room !

Thanks Chuck. What does this mean?
Watch out for students - they don't care? A bit disappointing comment there
Sorry Saint Etinne, I was being ironic and meant cyclists. I did not mean to offend you or any other students.
No problem - excellent tour by the way, thoroughly enjoyed it
Glad you enjoyed it.
