    When I lived there, I never bothered with any of the Uni stuff sadly. I'd suggest the Pitt Rivers museum (it's free). Another thing you could do is take a bus to Woodstock and have a look at Blenheim Palace, where Winston Churchill was born.

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.

    Turl Street Kitchen is quite good.
    The covered market is grand for a stroll. Quarter Horse cafe on the cowley road is the best cafe and Oli's Thai out there too is excellent - book well in advance.

    Mostl I'd say walk around. It's a lovely place to stroll around. Great parks too in Christ Church, University Park and Port Meadow.

    Jericho is a lovely area with good pubs and cafés.
