I've heard there's a nice Circus in Oxford 
If you listen carefully, you can hear people typing - 'places to visit in Oxford' into Google

nice..... some pretty nice architecture as well.

I always wanted to say "I went to Oxford", don't forget to get a tie John.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

definately take a look around some of the college's, they are usually open to the public plenty of tourists. beautiful grounds.
you could go punting down the river but it might be a touch chilly!
Bordelein (sp?) Library is in the centre of town, interesting looking building, worth a gander. Can't think of much else

Don't ask me, I can't afford to visit the place and it's only 20 miles down the road.
Sorry not to be of more help, Dan.

It must be possible to take tours round some of the interesting looking colleges?
Jon, phone the Tourist Information Centre there- they'll send you brochures and the like. It must have loads of good stuff.
And if nothing else, my friend Laura lives there and she's well worth a visit!
Cheers,
James

Like Cambridge they probably have tour buses that take in most of the well known sites, mind you it's a bit chilly for an open top bus at the
moment so wrap up warm . Doubt if the punts are operating yet , the punts in Cambridge are all out of the water until around Easter.
