A Season of Weather in a Day


It rained most of the morning until sunshine brightened the Market Place about midday. The market stalls were arranged with their vans, like a Wild West corral against the rain.

The Fruit and Veg stall had its usual poetry: “Lovely nanas, lovely nanas! A pound a bowl. Lovely nanas!” Alongside were stalls selling bread, and Indian cooked meals. And vans with meat, fish, and eggs, but none of the non-food stalls.

By mid-afternoon, more rain came, followed by lightening and thunder and ice cubes that made the ground slippery.

The flag on the County Hall was for Holocaust Memorial Day 2025.

Sunset brought stronger wind and rain, giving Abingdon almost every weather in a single day.
