I've visited the museum in the Lake District and found the displays to be most graphic.

These comments have 'lead' us astray from the question. The pencil museum in Keswick is OK...my kids liked it. The Lake District is well worth a trip, but not just for the pencil museum.

Good "point"

Sorry Melissa, I couldn't resist! I have really enjoyed your trip planning posts and learned a lot from your questions/answers.

Please give me your opinion

Should I skip going to the Cotswolds & Oxford for an extra day in Paris?
or is there something else to give up?

Thanks for your nice words about my postings
