Another must see:

http://www.oxford-covered-market.co.uk/

Very good prices on Weejuns & Sebagos at Macsamillions.

Best of all are all the old style butchers & fishmongers at the rear - Live crabs & lobsters in tanks along with most other seafood you can think of all displayed wonderfully on great banks of sparkling ice. In the butchers: pheasants, rabbits, geese, ducks, all hanging up and dripping blood.
Very old world.

Re: On visiting Oxford...

Nice finds, Marc.

I started to write an Oxford pub guide but gave up when I found this:

http://www.oxfordpubguide.co.uk/pub.html

Beter than anything I could ever do!

My final recommendation:

http://www.oldparsonage-hotel.co.uk/
