I have just had an email from my daughter-in-law saying their newly done holiday cottage in Oxfordshire is ready for letting.
It is ideal for the disabled and also for dog owners and those who like country walks.

A stressed commuters' prayer.
Oh glory-be, please let there be
some cosy country cottage
a haven from the frottage
and far off from any sea
Perhaps in England's heartland
kitted-out with all mod-cons
a roomy kitchen, clean loo, and
a French thing, to wash our sit-upons
A patio that gets full Sun
a secure place for the car
shady lanes where strolling's done
a complimentary mini-bar?
Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

Does it come with free membership of the Chipping Norton Set?

Peter, only if you have the right pedigree.
Vic, it is a lovely area and so peaceful (even though the railway is so near) with plenty of assorted wild birds, rabbits in the garden, swans on the Cherwell river that can be seen in the distance across the adjacent field. You might even see the lovely but annoying deer that have been known to visit my son's garden.

After Vic's latest post I think I better make it clear Cottage in The Country are only the letting agents, my son only has the cottage at Lower Heyford.
Brian, if you want some rabbits I am sure my son would love you to catch a few, one entrance to the warren is at the bottom of his garden..

Just to let you all know daughter-in-law has just registered with another site who seem much more popular and have already provided them with some bookings.
