Fun in the Park, Abingdon

Following last year’s successful event, the Abingdon Town Council joined forces with The Oxfordshire Play Association and hosted an afternoon of dance and family friendly activities followed by a paid evening of music and fireworks.  Ashnah took part in the day’s events where we were joined by the wonderful Oxford Drum Troupe (ODT) drummers.  Once again, despite the bigger crowds at The Abbey Meadows and the increased stalls, the atmosphere was so wonderfully safe and friendly!  We spotted so many friendly faces in the crowds so a big shout-out to all our friends who came to support us!

Rita with her 'feel good' drink

This was also a day of celebrations for us as we wished our lovely Rita a very Happy Birthday lalalalala!!!  We rounded off our dancing in the park off with a trip to The Kings Head & Bell with ODT and friends for drinks and nibbles all round along with present opening by Rita (with plenty of gasps, oohs and aahs at her gifts), then later some of us moved onto Pizza Express where we lounged in the garden til early evening, and dined in honour of Rita's 'special day'.
