Thanx folks,

The Penny fella is one I'd half heard of, and I believe it to be a far from silly suggestion, (even if he means nothing to me) as BtB says its not a bad angle at all for accessing a certain niche market

Think we'll pass on Archer though Brian!!! There's some suggestion he went to Brasenose, but they can only find records to suggest he was there for about 8 weeks or something like that as I understand it? Allegedly?

University alumni is the best bet I suppose?

I reckon the benefits of the Olympics are probably being over hyped to be honest with most of it likely to impact on the London area exclusievly, although I'd have thought I might be able to persuade them to route the torch through Oxford? quick spin round Ifley Road running track would seem to be appropriate, given its historical place in Athletics, (wonder if Sir Rodge is available to tootle around with it?) possibly get some rowing eight to take it down the Cherwell?.

I half expect an Olympic Consultancy industry to spring up in the next year or two with various Local Authorities and Development Agencies paying shed loads of retainers to dubiously qualified charalatans promising to be able secure access to all and sundry along similar lines
