As I can now manage to get in to the car, and get pushed about in the wheelchair we went to our local town to see the Carters steam fair, which was really amazing to see everything is immaculately hand painted & Signwritten, I was talking to the chap who was running the steam carousel and he was telling me this year is the final tour as they are putting everything up for sale and he added if a buyer isn’t found by march 2023 they will split the fair up and offer single items, which would be a crying shame !!
You can imagine the hard work that goes in to running a fair of this kind for 7 months of the year, he was telling me that there are 6 staff full time over the winter keeping the whole rides etc in the immaculate condition, carters steam fair has appeared in midsomer murders & Wurzel Gumage, let’s hope they find a buyer to keep this wonderful steam fair going.
