We have bought two of our cars new from Perry's in Aylesbury. Visited Oxford once but much preferred doing the countryside - far more appealing.

Re: Whatsthisthen?
Is it a coincidence or is the FCF gremlin at it again? Having taken the picture of the obelisk which prompted your picture of the River Guardian Neil, I strolled on a little and found this beauty which certainly bears a resemblance to the River Guardian I believe:

Re: Whatsthisthen?
This may generate some adventures into the dark arts
The only clue I can offer is that I came across it in parkland about 10-12 miles west of here!!

Lee Valley Mick? Bit of water on your POTD's . Scrub that you said 10/12 miles West! Reinstate that its also to the west in the vicinity of Wheathampstead

Just got home from dinner and pleased to see some effort has been going on
No its not Wheathamstead, you need to head SSW from there to a much larger place!! (By the way I don't know what it is either!!
)
