Rattler and I are going to be in Oxford on 2nd August all day before flying out on holiday on the 3rd. Does anyone have any suggestions of where to go? Neither of us has been before, so we're clueless! I keep hearing about what a great city it is, but I don't know where to start.
The Ashmolean is closed till November, which would have been my first pick. Anything else?
If anyone knows of any quilt shops, send me an email rather than replying on list so he doesn't suspect anything!

Could go and look round a college... e.g. http://www.chch.ox.ac.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=231&Itemid=281
or, yeah, take a punt out on the river with a picnic
Hooky 6
No idea where Hook Norton is in relation to Oxford though
Think there's a brewery there
Blackwells bookshop is quite large.
Catch the hop-on hop-off bus and do a tour.
bus
Second Puffin1's ideas.
or
Blenheim Palace is just up the road in Woodstock if you're into that kind of thing and Woodstock also has a good little museum.
