The Open Air Pool re-opened this morning and had its best first day for many a long year thanks to the lovely weather.

The first Salter’s passenger boat left at 11:30 this morning to Oxford. There was a queue waiting and most seats were taken.

On the Market Place the Church in Abingdon were celebrating Pentecost (the church’s birthday) with children’s activities.

Trinity Church had a summer fair outside and inside today. I see next week we at Trinity Church will be joining Abingdon Baptist Church for a Jubilee Service followed by the Ock Street Jubilee Party.
