On the Market Place on Saturday, there was a sponsored cycle ride with 16 static cycles raising funds for local charity Against Breast Cancer.
The Friends of Abingdon Community Hospital had had a good morning and were just packing up when I walked by.
Also on at the weekend was the Carswell School Fete and the Exbourne Road Street Party. They were all sat down for their Sunday lunch when I cycled by.
Good use of the town centre. Speaking of which, i see that M&S are coming to town – well…. Fairacres.
M & S?
“There will be stores and rumours of stores” – cf. Mark 13.
Sorry – last comment is looking for a riposte from DavidofLuton
PPJS: The verse that applies to Abingdon is actually not that verse, but a couple of verses further on. It prophecies the transfer of the Guildhall from the Vale Council to the Town Council and its eventual sale to Cranbourne Housing at a knock-down price to be redeveloped for housing:
Mark 13:9 “You will be handed over to the local council and flogged”
Brilliant!
