Following my perusal of the Gough Map in the Bodleian I went off to meet my good friend The Last Knight ( The Noise of the Crusade) for a leisurely two stage Italian lunch with plenty of Frascati and Chianti, and a thoroughly enjoyable discussion putting all manner of things in the world to rights.
We then went on to the Novena at the Oxford Oratory preparing for the feast of St Philip Neri next Thursday, before going to the Ordinariate Mass at Pusey House (an old haunt of ours), and then with other acquaintances to the Eagle and Child (aka the Bird and Baby) for a drink before he had to depart. A very civilised way to spend a May Saturday in Oxford.
Sounds like a heavenly afternoon!
