People are not able to walk to Tesco or the Fairacres Retail Park by the scenic route at the moment as it is again under water. They have to walk by the Marcham Road. At Fairacres, Homebase still seems to have stock to sell off. The person I asked hadn’t been told a final closing date yet.
The fields near Tesco are frozen as we go through a cold snap this week.
Last Saturday, I wished the Abingdon parkrun success in the coming year, but unfortunately, the event scheduled for 11th January 2025 has already been cancelled due to frozen flooding. It seems well-wishing isn’t always enough.
Why not a raised wooden causeway on the scenic route to Tesco/Fairacres?
Or even better a ferry service to Tesco…..@steve2 as with everything who will pay for a wooden bridge, who will maintain it and can the cost be justified against the number of people who use that route
I just ask the question, Colin, l don’t supply the answers.
Why not a monorail?
Except that is more of a Shelbyville idea.
Welcome back to the blog. Hope you are enjoying life in Rugby.
Oh I check the blog quite regularly to see how things are going in the old backyard. I do not often comment, though.
