One event I usually cover is the annual Abingdon Head of the River Regatta. This crew were not involved.
They are just catching their breath after a training run .
On Sunday, I walked Harry round South Abingdon in the morning before church, then in the afternoon we both took him beside a shallow stream and through some woods in Steventon.
We saw our first ducklings of the year there. Returning about 5 PM I noticed from St Helens Wharf crowds of cars further along the river and realised it was Regatta Day. Lots of pictures of that though at Big Blade. But no pictures of Abingdon Rowing Club crews who are too busy organising the event.
always feels like spring when the ducklings and signets appear.
Thank you so much for this. I miss the joys of watching ducklings and cygnets since we moved away from Whitstable. I love your blog as it keeps me in touch with what is going on. Thanks
