Fröƶen opened their new shop today at the top of West St Helen Street.
They serve frozen yogurt with a large variety of toppings, and were doing well on their first day. (Frozen Yogurt is big business and has taken off in the last couple of years.)
The Kings Head and Bell re-opened today after a refurbishment. The Mayor of Abingdon, Helen Pighills, is seen here with Ian Grundy one of the people in charge at Foundation Inns.
Pubs in Abingdon have seen big changes since Foundation Inns first revitalised The Kings Head and Bell seven years ago.
They are now improving the pub again.
On the Market Place today some of the recently elected town councillors were selling wristbands for Music in the Parks. There are still openings for 300 people to go to the Abingdon music event of the year!
The four councillors are: Samantha Bowring, Alice Badcock, Neil Fawcett, and Mike Badcock.
Also on the Market Place, 2121 (Abingdon) Squadron, Air Cadets, were letting young people know of other openings, including the opportunity to get airbourne and earn their wings.
Frozen need to get their portion control sorted. Ordered 2 vanilla and got a full serve in the bucket, also ordered a Strawberry and this as at least 1/3 less in size to the other serves. Both were done by different staff so perhaps some more staff training and some stricter guidelines of what constitues a standard serve.
Is Frozen run by the same man who ran Sweet Chocolate?
Ah, Alice. We dated for a while back in the day. I miss her. A great choice for councillor, too.
