SEPTEMBER
These are a few ofour favourite September things
The children are back to school and autumn is knocking on the door. Make haste to the City Centre for Oxford Open Doors, a whole weekend of free fun, plus the annual Oxford Science and Ideas Festival, plus the Tiny Ideas Festival. Phew – busy times! Also a great time to pull your muddy boots on and get out on some countryside walks! Is it too early to put the Christmas tree up?! Asking for a friend.
