I spent the morning of Thursday 28th in the Bodleian, making lots of final frantic notes for my background reading on Horace and the afternoon visiting the chapels in Merton, All Souls, Brazenose and Oriel, oh yes, and I got into the Radcliffe Camera to read a bit in there and have a look round.

My final dinner at Corpus was, as usual, wonderful, if tinged with sadness. I could hardly believe that almost a month had gone by. It's been a memorable experience for me.

I've been made to feel so welcome - everyone has been warm and helpful. A huge thank you to everyone at Corpus Christi and to poets and friends at other colleges.
