QUINTESSENTIAL Oxford came to life yesterday as many took to the city’s rivers and parks to bask in the hot summer sun.

Sadly, that's about it for this week – today is set to be overcast with temperatures peaking at 17 degrees Celcius, and it will stay cloudy for the rest of the week.
Roll on July...
