At the Local Excellence Market in Abingdon today, Totoro, a snow trooper, and Harlequin were there on the Abingdon and Witney College stall to let people know about ThamesCon . This event will include performances, workshops, exhibitions, and food. Sir Tony Robinson will even be there as part of a reunion of the cast of Maid Marian and her Merry Men. It is on 28th April at the college. More information at https://thamescon.co.uk/
Next to Thames con were The Hampshire Gluten Free Company who come from an old farm cottage overlooking Watership Down – which is a real place, not far from Newbury.
There were lots of stalls at the market and the weather this Saturday was good after the snow of last weekend.
The Town Crier was letting people know about the Market. He has grown a moustache for the Abingdon Drama Club forthcoming production of ‘A More Perfect World’. He is one of three characters telling the story of their first world war. It is on from 11th-14th April and tickets can be bought at http://www.abingdon-drama-club.com/
His cries did help to bring the crowds to the Market Place.
