Heh -- no, punting as in pushing a narrow boat, known as a punt (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punt_(boat)) along the river.
It is a popular warm weather passtime in both Oxford and Cambridge. Though your meaning -- procrastinating from work -- is also often true of a person who is punting! ;-)
Things might be open on a Sunday. I should check. Staying over for an extra day is not a bad idea a'tall, really. Oxford needs more than one day to see it properly. I should check with cheshcat, but it would probably be fine to put you up in our guest room at Skullcrusher Mountain[*].
Cute icon, by the way! [*] That's the name of our flat.
