Tell us about the time the fairground came to town and you were sick in a hedge; or when you went to a theme park or circus and were sick in a hedge

Best parties I ever attended were at a rather famous Surrey theme park after hours. Ever been down a log flume? How about with no log? That's a good way to ruin a nice pair of jeans!
How's about getting the timing right on the flying blood sucking mammal ride? All the staff were on there continuously for a good hour I guess.
We had a young lad start on the ride, sadly he lacked a bit in the brain department, so rather than finding the staff entrance to the ride, to get behind the scenes so to speak, he jumped over the tracks. Just as the ride was coming into the stop! Some serious reprimanding there.
Debauched parties meant being sick was commonplace. At one, some of the lads I worked with were getting fed up with a young rock star type stealing sweets. They left out a paper bag full of laxatives and let nature take its course. The party later that day was mostly devoted to watching this poor guy too-ing and fro-ing, and taking a while about it too. He wore those lace up leather jeans that took half an hour to get in or out of! I'm quite glad to be able to say I wasn't involved with that particular one. He was a nice guy.
But the parties! Oh the parties. Never have I had such an awesome time, before or since. Sex on a plate.
Met loads of celebs too. Terry Gilliam's autograph was the best by a long way.

Disposable once past their prime. (Like me I guess)

Should have put my brain in this morning. Serves me right for touching the evil drink.

Or do I need a tag team partner too?
Applications on a postcard and sent to the wrong address please.

...so I've heard many similar stories.

they may sound made up, but rather scarily they're true.
(In fact I remember the clowns being some of the worst offenders.)
