October past

Hello November is just round the corner, and I am pleased to be online to update my blog visitors with some more random local photos I have taken this month

It has been a long time coming to fruition, but I am pleased to say that the Swiss Farm Crossing has been opened successfully for a week or so now. There were quite a few teething problems but thankfully, the Oxfordshire County Council have finally sorted them out. Here’s to safe crossing. The crossing stops the traffic for as long as a pedestrian takes to cross the road.

A new Restaurant has opened in Bell Street, reports are that prices are higher than the café it replaced.

The nail bar in Duke Street also entered into the Halloween theme!
