This 
        was a weekend festival just north of Norwich towards the end of 1987 and 
        one of the few I actually took a camera to. This was just before the rave 
        culture hit and there had been some debate as to whether to allow any 
        electric music at the fair. In the end, we did have bands.
      The 
        nighttime though was spent around camp fires, getting trollied in the 
        time honoured way and the days werem't so very different.

              not in. This 
              was Daves van. I first met this guy in the early 80's he earned the name "Womble" because 
              he collected tat in huge quantities. I 
              spent many an evening visiting Dave in his van, and I have many 
              happy memories of sitting around his wood burner stove on cold winter 
              nights. These days he's known as Dave again. Note 
              the prices ... |

              powered tea stall, a regular at fairs. That's a kettle at the focus of the dish. |
