Burford Wild Life Park

at the moment im trying to download things onto my blog to get to grips with the process but hope in future to make it more interesting for you.

anyway lets try uploading another image of my lovely town just to get things going



As you can see, this is not actually an image from my town but believe me or not it's not too far away. In fact this little creature is a
Prairie Dog homed at the Costwold wild life park near Burford, which is a famously beautiful town some 8 miles to the west of here. I often think Witney is the gateway to the Cotswold's which I hope most people are familiar with. In fact, Burford is the first proper Cotswold town before you go further west into Gloucestershire and eventually getting to the Welsh border.
An interesting (not!) fact is that i once did a market research questionnaire outside the Burford public toilets as well as various other public toilets in the vicinity of the West Oxfordshire borders with the aim of ascertaining which toilets were used least and therefore which conveniences they could close first. Thankfully, Burford's services are well used as there are so many tourists (often American or Japenese). A toilet at the East end of Witney town ( curiously called the West end - don't ask!) was hardly used at all. I spent 2 hapless hours outside this establishment and not one person used them. They've now been refurbished and turned into a lovely home as the building was quite historical.


anyways - back to Burford. Th wildlife park there has many great creatures and the one above is one the nicest. Why don't you come and visit some time and check out the other beautiful creatures a the park. I'll even be your guide
