The postbox is wearing a tea-cosy bra. That can only mean that Against Breast Cancer (a charity based in Abingdon) is returning with their annual Splash of Pink on Abingdon Market Place on Saturday. There will be an assortment of stalls, together with supporting characters like the Star Wars stormtroopers.

For the last fortnight, shops have displayed pink ribbons, balloons and bunting. Their displays will be considered for the best-dressed shop window competition.

Throwing Buns have pink balloons, ribbons, bunting, bras and cakes.

The Finishing Touch has pink flowers, ponchos, bunting, umbrellas and balloons.

Chic It Up have pink flamingoes, flowers, bunting and balloons.

National chains like Starbucks and Holland & Barrett have pinked up.

The cutting bar focused on the pink ribbon – the international symbol of breast cancer awareness.
