Yesterday there was ice under the trees on the opposite bank to St Helen’s Wharf.
Green plants and dead leaves could be seen under the ice.
The ice has melted today, but yesterday it looked spectacular with the sun, trees, and ice.
The overnight freezing fog left rime on cobwebs and trees this morning.
The sensory garden at Carswell School was designed by Trinity Learning, a charity run by Rosemary Perrow for many years. It helped and still helps a lot of schools and children. Rosemary recently died, but her excellent work at Trinity Learning is carried on by Nicola.
There will be a tabletop sale at Trinity on February 4th.
On Friday evening, the Church in Abingdon quiz took place at Peachcroft Christian Centre with eleven church teams. Trinity won it the last time, but Christ Church – Long Furlong won this time.
I mention those things because twenty years ago, I started blogging, and my first blog was the occasional blog about Trinity Abingdon. The Harry Dog Blog and Abingdon Blog came later in 2006.
Today we wore our wellington boots because gusty winds and heavy rain continued. On Stert Street, the surface water was splashed towards pedestrians and shops.
Surface water was also on this corner of Park Road and Conduit Road.
Lighter showers are predicted tomorrow.
The change from street to shop is startling during this heatwave. You hear people saying on going into the Co-op,’I’ll spend the day here.’
Refrigeration and air conditioning units must be using a lot of power.
The trees at the Square and Market Place give shade.
Other places are more exposed to the sun.
