As of the last article submitted to I think many of my postings that would have usually shown up here will be occurring there.
Oh I do like to play tourist in my home county too so if anyone would like me to take a wander round and come up with something. Do give us a shout. Whether it's the famous you wish to know more about attached to a house or anything about famous authors such as Lewis Carroll. Please feel free to challenge me.
Till next time

If you want a challenge, I've been researching, very slowly admittedly, a couple of Olympic heroes from the past. I've only done two, but I'd like to see more:

There are plenty more out there

Hi Opti - the Oxford shark would make a wonderful quirky Edited Guide entry. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Headington_Shark
I briefly worked in Headington (for Cap'n Bob Maxwell), but I only drove past the shark once or twice.
Do you fancy writing it? I'd be happy to help out with research if you needed it. We have some great entries on US sculptures (Giant Jesus: A16859226 Big Duck: A19617500 etc), so I think a shark entry would go down really well - particularly if you can add some of your local knowledge.

Yes - put the exams first!
If you're up for a collaborative entry, I can sketch an outline structure and see what you think. I really think it's crying out for an unusual style. It's not enough to say it's there; many readers would want to know what on earth possessed the sculptor to do it.
