Fairfield Fiesta

Well that’s it for another year.  The fiesta is over.  I don’t know what the numbers for the day will be, but there were a LOT of people around  for most of the day, until the showers which had been looming finally arrived.   We sold a lot of books, lots of fairy floss was consumed and everyone seemed to be having fun.  The dastardly stuff called silly string was around again, although not as much as in previous years, and some traders still sold those annoying horns that teenaged boys seem to love.  Dick coined a collective noun, an annoyance of teenagers.   Really most of them were fine, but when 10 of them stand behind you blowing those honking horns, they are indeed, annoying.  We will be donating some money to the Mental Illness awareness cause and I’m sure they will be happy with the success of the day.    Heather
