A gaggle of nuns gathered in Abingdon this afternoon. They were not real nuns but had gathered for a Hen Party, and were enjoying the sun.
The River Thames has overflowed onto the Abbey Meadows after some fairly heavy rain last week.
Abingdon also welcomed a number of swans on what was a quite balmy afternoon for this time of year.
Thanks to my wife for the final shot showing a swan from the other side of a Welcome to Abingdon sign.
Thanks Backstreeter for continuing to remind us about the good things about where we live. I am as aware as anyone of the less good, but it is good to keep the balance.
It was good to see so many enjoying the sunshine in the Abbey gardens and meadow this afternoon. Our great open riverside space to use freely, when we will. Long may it remain.
The NUNS must have had a fantastic FUN day. One to remember the rest of their lives.
Made ME smile 🙂
Happy Sunday!
Don’t forget the Passion Play today folks…
Sister Act look good but I’m not sure real nuns carry posh handbags and wear multicoloured trainers,do they?The swans must be quite pleased they do not have to pay mooring fees.
