On Saturday I popped into Oxfam.
At the Counter I met not only the Oxfam shop manager, and Roger who has worked at the shop for many years, but also a young lady from Mostly Books.…
She had leaflets for an interesting event Mostly Books are hosting on Thursday, 16 November, when Kate Young – the Guardian columnist and prize winning food blogger – will be at Mostly Books to present The Little Library Cookbook. Each recipe starts with a literary quote from her well stocked kitchen and library.
Oxfam have a quiz leading up to Christmas. You just need to pop in for the next five weeks and collect the 5 letters to have the chance to win a big prize.
Directly over the road from Oxfam, a new shop called Willow’s Shakeshop opened two weeks ago. In front they have crafts and gifts, and at the back they have a cafe.
Between Oxfam and Mostly Books is Abingdon Picture Framing.
