When I did my report on Abingdon Museum ‘Opening at Night’ back in May, there were complaints that people did not know. There is another one happening this Friday. Be Warned!

It looks like we are at full moon again. Not a blue moon or super moon this time – more of a haloed moon with Halloween so near.

Down by the River the Abingdon Chamber of Commerce Twitter Feed shows a sign saying ‘Riverside Cafe Opening Spring 2016 (corrected)’. The centre building will become the cafe, and the  boat chandlery will move to the smaller building on the right. Picnic tables will be added to the right of that.

The clocks in Abingdon were turned back an hour last night – at the end of British Summer Time. St Helen’s Church had already adjusted when I went out this morning.

The parking machines were just being changed back.

And St Nicolas Church had already been adjusted.

It was a lovely day with sunshine and lots of fallen leaves. I can hardly believe we are already into the fortnight of Halloween, fireworks, and Remembrance Day. 2015 is just flying by.

Brave members of the 2nd Abingdon Scouts had a gazebo on the Market Place, and were selling tickets for their annual fireworks that takes place behind Long Furlong Community Centre on Saturday 7th November. Gates Open at 6:30pm for fireworks starting some time later.

Advance Tickets: Family £12, Single £4.
On the night: Family £15, Single £5.

Members of the Abingdon Army Cadets were out in force selling poppies.

Undercover, at St Nicolas Church, Abingdon Artists had an exhibition.

A lot of people went to the second weekend of the Craft Fair at the Old Abbey Buildings.

There are also local crafts to be bought at Added Ingredients who have a display of local pottery.

There was a final workshop at the Community Space led by the Abingdon Flower Club before taking down their window display.
