Oxford again

Sunny today and I am off to Oxford for a spiritual top up.  First stop is Leon for some stodgy but acceptable porridge with blueberry and seeds.  

Here I post Jon's fascinating photos from the Peace Museum at Nagasaki onto our social media sites. 

And the sun still shines in the town but it's too busy because the new shopping centre is open 

The service focuses on Hope.  I light a candle for the hope women now have, following the scandal at Westminster.  Afterwards at the club we have a great chat.  I say from a Buddhist angle not hoping could be good 

Afterwards I go to 'Imagining the Divine' at the Ashmolean 

From top left clockwise Jewish Parochet 18C, The Buddha, tempura on silk, Tibet 15C, Pilgrimage certificate (to Mecca) 15C and Lancaster Cross 8C.  Imagining the Divine #Ashmolean  I hadn’t realised there were no images of the Buddha before about the first century AD.

Home to tea and Parkin and a lovely chat with my Art Historian.  A nice dinner with T, now to bed with the Spanish series, Se quien eres
