  4. What great memories of yesterday. Thank you Anne for a wonderful day out and your knowledge of Oxford. This shop was really something very special. I hope one day I will get the chance to take you around one of our French villages. Have a good week and take care. Diane

  5. How could you go into a store like this and not gain 5 pounds just looking at all these tempting delights? Were you good?

    I hate it that you always have so much trouble when you visit my blog. I have tried to find a way to contact someone to see what the issue could be, but I can't seem to get very far. Make it over when you can.

    Greeting from the also sunny (today at least) Northern Germany!

  6. What a cute, quaint old fashioned sweet shop! I would be very, very dangerous in there!

    I love it when the sun is shining and its a bit nippy. I can just imagine how nice a stroll around Oxford with a friend would be!

  21. Oh yum! There's a shop exactly like that in Greenwich - and I have to make sure I don't go inside, far too dangerous! ;-) Glad you're well and enjoying the sunshine.
