Here is my diary for Thursday:
I guess on Thursday morning it was very hard for us to get out of bed: the day before with it's tour through the East End and the Jack the Ripper Walk might be the reasons for it.
But on Thursday was the Oxford-tour planned. To get to Oxford we had to go by train so we had a bit time to sleep.
In Oxford arrived Dori and Steve guided us through London and showed us among other sights some beautiful collages. Unfortunately we couldn't visit them because they were closed (I would have enjoyed it to see a collage from inside). But Mr. Umbrella told us a lot of these collages so a visit would have been totally unnecessary and we are now very well informed about studying in Oxford!
After we had finished our tour we had a bit less than two hours time to explore Oxford on our own. Of course our first stopp was at Mc Donald's because we were very hungry (and where do you can get cheaper something to eat?)!
Afterwards we noticed that not much time was left so our exploration must be shorten a bit and ended finally in a little shopping tour! Now I'm proud of having two new books, CDs and one DVD...
During our little trip we discovered a man playing a guitar with three-I don't know how it is called- necks?
Finally Nina, Patricia and I buyed some very DELICIOUS smoothies/milkshakes. (Why does Moo Moo's has no shops in Berlin???????) But it took more time to make these milkshakes than we thought so we had to run to our meeting point. When we arrived we were out of breath and found out that we were not too late and had another 5 minutes...no comment!
Back in London we went to St. Paul's Cathedral to take part at an evensong. Ten minutes after 5 o'clock we wondered why the evensong didn't started...until we found out that the monotone voice we heard did not come from a CD but was the voice of the priest! But it was too late. When we found out that the evensong did not take place where it usually was, the evensong was finished.
After this we went to Mr. Fish to eat a traditional Fish and Chips-Meal and I must say it was very tasty!
Our dinner followed some private activities which will not specified here...like Patricia said: Mr. Umbrellas phantasy will not be bored!

Dear Betti, are you sure you wanted to visit collages? And where did your coursemates give you a guided tour? Moreover, I suggest you have your post checked as I see chances for its improvement ... With regard to the guitar you are right - this specific one has three necks.
Cheers,
Mr Umbrella
Oh my god! This is a really stupid mistake! Of course they guided us through Oxford!
