If you are new to this newsletter, I suggest that you read the Introduction and First Night in Oxford before reading this newsletter. We pick up the story with a description of life without this technology in Oxford in 1986.
In April 2007, I spent a week at St. Catherine's College for a work event. I stayed in a dorm room similar to the one you described. I woke one morning to a surprise spring snow shower. My favorite memory is wandering through Holywell Cemetery early that day. The bushes had pink blooms, and the mid-19th century headstones were draped with snow. It was magical.
Do you have photos of that day? I was in Oxford from Jan. to Aug. 2007. I added a photo (above) that was taken of me in the snow in 2007. I don't know if it was the same day, but snow is rare in Oxford so maybe it was.

I do have photos! One of my favorites is on my office wall. I don't think I am able to post them here.
