This your Haiku brings back meories on the boat races between Oxford and Cambridge, very well penned, Janette! Have been to Oxford several times and stayed there when LadyDi's and Prince Charles' wedding was broacasted on TV. Really enjoyed Oxford during my stays...Thank you for commenting "The Sea"! Have a nice time...Gert
