Dear Mr AbingdonBlog… Alistair….
Thank you once again for providing an informative and up to date source of information about our town. Can I Wish you and your family, and all readers of this Brilliant page a Happy 2012… it must be better than 2011?
Yes I wish you all a good New Year too. However, this marks the end of my first year in Abingdon and the pictures on your review have reminded me what a great little town Abingdon is. I have made an effort to attend most of the events shown on your blog and have loved every one of them – thanks to all who worked so hard in staging these ‘happenings’. I hope people continue to support them.
What a great review of the year`s events in Abingdon – with such a haunting soundtrack. .thanks very much Alistair.
Alistair, again you have excelled yourself. Wonderful review of the year. I have been without the internet for over a week and gosh I have missed it, but mostly not being able to have my daily look at your Blog. Happy New Year.
