Well we have eventually extracted ourselves from the dreaming spires of Oxford and feel as if we have come out into the countryside, mind you as the Thames winds and meanders its way along we are still only a stones throw outside of Oxford as the crow flies. We are into new territory now
Current location
This morning as I was getting the boat ready for our departure and Frances was getting some last minute provisions, this character shuffles up to me and says ‘ They say that zero to the power of zero is one but I say its undeterminable ‘. There are clearly a lot of people like this wondering up and down the towpath around Oxford but it made a pleasant change to have a mathematical discussion for a change.
We went for a walk along the Thames path and then back into Eynsham, passing Wharf stream on the way.
