Tours are very popular here, very popular indeed. It just wouldn’t be me to pass up on such an opportunity for a fast buck (you know just how much of a Capitalist I am and all that…) So here it is: THE GENUINE OXFORD EXPERIENCE! by Scott Carless. This is where I shall charge you money (indeed [...]
