On Thursday this week the Christmas Extravaganza takes place in Abingdon. The Parade is at 6:45pm. The lights get turned on at 7pm by Nicola Blackwood MP. The winners of the ‘Find a Fairy’ competition will be announced at 8:15pm just before the fireworks.
Since Saturday children (and parents) have been going round the town, finding the fairies – one for each letter of the alphabet – in shop windows. I’m sure ER Goffs will still have some Entry Forms, and this is all the details you need to supply :
Name:
Age:
Phone:
Name of Fairy Name of Shop
A
B
C
…
X
Y
Z
I think that this is a great idea!! I was sitting today near one of the ‘fairy pictures’ posted in a window and I was amazed by how many folk came up clutching their forms and scribbled in the details. My ‘neighbour’ was OLIVIA by the way!
