A circular walk and talk from the centre of Oxford, along the Oxford Canal, to Wolvercote and down to Godstow Abbey ruins. Followed by a return to Oxford along a very wet and muddy river Thames footpath.  

Part of a series of walks by Steve Vaughan, a professional wedding photographer and business coach based in Bicester, Oxfordshire. Steve describes the walk, and things he sees on the way, as a live recording in the field during the walk.

My name is Steve Vaughan. I'm a 58 year old wedding photographer and business coach based in Bicester, Oxfordshire. in 2021, I plan to walk 1000 miles to get fitter, and to explore. I'm taking photos as I go along.  As I walk, I am recording a podcast; taking you with me on the walk, talking about the things I see, and topical news of the day. 

In this first episode, I'm having a short walk from my home; something I will have to do for the next 6 weeks at least, as the UK is once more in a COVID-19 lockdown.  I'm walking from my home on the North West of Bicester, through the new housing estate of Kingsmere and past the currently closed outlet shopping resort of Bicester Village, before swinging back home.   Some topics I talk about :
