My memories of France revolve around them, as well as those of Tenerife. I was camera-happy too, though the camera can never capture the smells.liz younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16289501717229347872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6369429383948592696.post-55366409753678203712015-09-19T14:13:22.137+01:002015-09-19T14:13:22.137+01:00Absolutely, Ann.

I always recommend visitors to Oxford to take in the Covered Market where not just food but a whole range of goods are sold. The sights and sounds and above all the smells are just so different to normal shopping. We seem to be cut off from all that in our sanitised shops.<br />Annawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03952972062354370535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6369429383948592696.post-40331746490916803272015-09-19T08:07:45.748+01:002015-09-19T08:07:45.748+01:00A mini series around markets would be great if the...A mini series around markets would be great if there aren't too many weevils!RosJKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102142180891356153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6369429383948592696.post-85982204640435221412015-09-19T08:02:37.021+01:002015-09-19T08:02:37.021+01:00Fabulous photos, Susan.
