London- Oxford, a little "trip".

Myself, Shilpa and Amrita went to explore Oxford, a beautiful uni town with amazing architecture. We went away for the weekend (a few weeks ago - will fill exact date in later). It made me want to go back to Uni. We stayed over at a B& B in a really quiet countryside town called Morton in Marsh and overall had a very lazy weekend eating scones with jam and clotted cream....yummmm!


We had to catch a train from Oxford to Morton in Marsh and we were running late. I was the only one carrying a small suitcase which made the loudest sound as the wheels rolled along the ground. So we ran - and we ran - and I fell. I fell with all my might from dragging the mini suitcase behind me and tripping over. My sunglasses flew somewhere and i was sprawled on the footpath with a grazed elbow and bruised thigh reminding me of my year 9 ski trip...This would have been a hilarious sight. But Shilpa and Amrita were too kind to laugh. I asked them later in a bar "how did you know i had fallen since you both were running infront of me...was it because of the big "thud"? Amrita replied "actually it was because there was sudden silence and your suitcase wheels could no longer be heard"...lol. We reached the station finally and saw our train on the opposite platform. We watched as it passed....hmm...
