Womad 2007

If you had wellies, mud like this was no problem. It was when it got sticky, that it got hard going. We found a nice green area round the Radio 3 stage where you could still sit on the grass. That didn't last. But it was an oasis for a while.

No Big Deal

I thought it would be. But it ain't.

The Witney Blanket Story

Up in the museum , there is an exhibition about the Witney Blanket Story. Witney Blankets have a reputation for being warm and cuddly. The last one was made in 2002. There are lots of sample blankets you can hold and cuddle in the children's area.

The Witney M.P, and Tory leader, David Cameron was in town today...

The Outback

Today, being a bank holiday, we went for a walk in the outback. There's an old sand quarry a few miles cross county from home.
with a long dead tree. But no Kanga or Roo.

Milton Heights needs pedestrian crossing on busy road

Issue 3 of People and the Park - The Magazine for Milton Park and Our Neighbours - has an article on the need for a road crossing at Milton Heights. 

Residents and daily users of Home Farm Trust at Milton Heights, which caters for 50 adults with learning difficulties, find the busy road a nightmare. It is the only way to get to the bus stop, and the stop itself ias next to a grass verge with no pavement.

One person at Milton Heights was knocked down by a car, and as a result others are now having to go by car, and so had lost the independence of being able to take the bus. There is a petition to ask Oxfordshire County Council to install a pedestrian crossing. 

Milton Park business park report that they are supporters of HFT and say they are deeply upset by the situation and are backing HFT's cause. Thank you to them for the picture. All Rights Reserved.
