Some of the members of Abingdon Baptist Church were out taking mugs of coffee to the people setting up the fair.
This is the team that set up the Meteorite ride this year, having a quick coffee break.
During the Abingdon Street Fair, buses need to find an alternative route for a couple of days.
As do cars. The Bellingers forecourt is cleared, and the workers there get Monday and Tuesday off.
Lots of us like to have a look at the fair being set up. It is an Abingdon tradition for young
and old. This chap films every year, and has an archive going back many years. Let us hope we can get some good pictures tomorrow night.
I must admit, having lived in Mayotts Rd for 4 years 19 years ago, it brings back many memories of a week of disruption, litter and noise. One of the major reasons we moved out of the area of Ock Street.
