a fairground life(street fair)
I had to do a double trip today, so I took the miami first and parked it on a side street near the High St. Then I went back to the yard for the dropzone. I'm glad it's only about 8 miles apart. By the time I got the second load there it was 9:30pm. The road would not be closed for another hour at least so I parked the ride nearby. We waited until about 10:45pm, but the council still hadn't closed the road so we decided to start. The miami was first to be on site, we uncoupled it and parked the unit so we could set the d/zone. Then we started on the DZ because we had to get the pole up before other attractions could start. We fired in and had the ride up in a record 1hr. Then we started on the maimi. All the time the cars were weaving through the fair and looking at us as if we shouldn't be there. It's not our fault the council never closed the road, they know the fair is booked and the license in place and they collect a rental. Why can't they just close the road at a reasonable time? Any how we were all done for 1am and when we left the road was still not closed, glad we didn't wait for the council to do it.
Bed time now and up at 7am for the Horse show.
