HFF from the Wednesdays Cafe Bar in Oswestry

HFF from the Wednesdays Cafe Bar in Oswestry
A cafe in Oswestry has unveiled a custom-made sculpture inspired by a Norse God. Local artists, Bridie Dunbabin and George Triggs revealed the sculpture at Wednesdays Cafe Bar, made by Oswestry artist Jas Davidson,

The owner of Wednesdays, Tim Bailey, said the commission would feature the Norse God, Odin, also known as Woden and is influenced by the name of the cafe as the weekday name of Wednesday derives from the Old English name of the god: ‘Woden’s day’.

This looks the perfect place to have a coffee in pandemic times. I can just imagine Odin's ravens Hugin and Munin circling overhead;-) HFF, Amelia!

One of Odin's ravens used to sit on his raised arm, and the other can just be seen above the round sign advertising tanning etc. They check that social distancing is being maintained. ;-)))

A nice sculpture although I'm not sure about the location I would think people going into a cafe tend not to be looking up they are looking for somewhere to sit and the menu. HFF Amelia I hope you have a nice weekend, as it's a holiday at home is probably the best bet

An interesting looking café, with a nice outside courtyard..............perfect for visiting in these "new normal" times.

I like the statue - but I'm not sure I've ever seen Odin depicted wearing a hat like that. I did hear once that he liked a good strong cup of coffee and a cake though :-))

Very nicely captured Amelia. HFF to you - I hope you have an enjoyable weekend.

A perfect place to have a coffee under the protection of Odin and his ravens. It's interesting how things are being adapted and solutions found. Looks like we may all be spending more time in the open air which may be no bad thing. Must stock up on my winter woollies.

Last week I berated M&S for not having their full thermal wear available yet, Jean. Have now received notification that that state of affairs has been rectified. We sit outside to drink a coffee even in mid winter.
We're hoping to come up to Fife in mid September, but are hesitating to book anything too early. We'll see what the infection rates are in the next week or two.

I understand your feelings. I would like to go up north but am hesitating. If you do come and you feel like it, get in touch.
