a fairground life

Another fine day for this time of the year. I was up and away at 8am this morning to meet the diesel man and fuel up. Then I polished the cab of the Foden lorry. At Stranraer I had put a cover around it as the year before the youths had scratched their names into the paintwork. The cover prevented this but left a few rub marks on the cab too, so I polished them out. After that it was a check over and ready for opening at noon.The fair has got a turn the last couple of days, due no doubt to the good weather. The only excitement was when a ghost train car broke down. The operator got a few of us to help him lift it off the track. Then it was business as normal again for him, less one carriage. Two more days to go then it will only be weekends. I have a wedding this week coming then I will try and get stuck into that list of jobs I wrote.
