Default Year in Year out does the fair get worse?

Years ago the fair used to be massive.

Went tonight with my partner Nicky and it was in our opinion the worst yet?

Should States back the fair more?

Or call it aday and say good bye?

I don't know the kids still love it. I think as you get older it gets worse.

I think it has got smaller, with not so many good rides, the problem is in the shipping costs, a few years ago we had a good fair but bad weather so not a good turn out, then the big ride owners vowed not to come back.

I thought it was brilliant the first year, back when I was a teen. Since then it got samey and boring as the novelty wore off.
Was it last year it was here for months and that was way too long?

I think they should give it a rest and bring it back every other year.

They dont seem to have as many rides as they used to, the ones they have are over priced. Do they charge the same prices when they are in the mainland?
