The Long Drive Home.
We left Lou’s place at about 1pm.

We headed over to Bicester Outlet Shopping Village, as L wanted to look at Mulberry bags and I wanted to check out the Bose store.

Pandora no mora!
I visited Pandora.com today and was greeted by a sad message. “We are deeply, deeply sorry to say that due to licensing constraints, we can no longer allow access to Pandora for listeners located outside of the U.S.” Well, that sucks.
