From Snow Correspondents

More Snow Pics
Thanks to Peter who sent me a picture – of his – that has already appeared on BBC South. It shows the moon last night above St Helen’s Church. If the lunar eclipse was visible at all last night it would have been around dawn and from Cornwall and Devon – cloud permitting. Did anybody see it in Abingdon?

George, who I have not heard from for ages, sent me a picture of the crosses in St Edmund’s Churchyard. Each cross is a memorial to one of the Sisters of Mercy who came to help educate the poor of Abingdon in days gone by.

Richard sent two pictures, taken on Monday, where neighbours on Cameron Avenue – off the Radley Road – got together to clear their road.

There’s no chaos Here

Newspapers had headlines about snow chaos elsewhere in the country.

Here in Abingdon there was some light fresh snow. This picture of East St Helen Street early yesterday morning shows what snow there was. Most of it has gone again now.

The early morning traffic from South Abingdon is there whether there is snow or not.
