There are rich pickings for pigeons in Abingdon

This pigeon is in the Margaret Brown Gardens. It is just checking whether to fly away from that human being with the camera or wheel around for more rich pickings.

This pigeon is on the other side of the Thames. It’s a wonder it can fly carrying all that weight.

This pigeon was seen near the River Ock next to a bird that has to hunt and catch its own food.

John Mason School’s 5 Decades

O6 Art Exhibition
50th anniversary celebrations have been going on at John Mason Secondary School.  They had a Fun Day last Saturday and an assembly to celebrate the anniversary mid week.

Yesterday,  I went to the school’s O6 Art Gallery where, beyond the A Level Course work exhibition, there was a 50th anniversary exhibition…John Mason 70s and 80s

Last Saturday at the Fun Day a lot of the pupils dressed up.  Years 7s in 1970s,  year 8s in 80s, year 9 in 90s, and other years in 60s gear.  But as I was not there to see them, here is the real thing, thanks to Friend Reunited…John Mason in 1968
