I hope you realise that the mention of that name here is likely to have alerted the snoopers at the NSA and GCHQ.

This weekend Carters Steam Fair came to Peckham Rye.
A real blast from the past, including a steam carousel (built in Norwich in 1885) and all the rides and sideshows that we senior citizens remember from the olden days when we were young.
There was candyfloss.

Their website http://www.visit.carters-steamfair.co.ukis well worth a visit.

Penners, I took the risk assuming they'd all be too busy with the Beiderbeck affair and the G8!!

 

[Penners]

Rather you than me!

Did you have a ride on the carousel Moo?

Gosh that name mentioned in Skier's post--- blast from the past indeed!

 

[Gareth Hughes]

Evelyn is indeed very happy.

I'm pleased, she did put a lot of effort into saving it.
