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

The original one was not far from the corkscrew before they put dinosaurs all over it. It was massive and had no seat belts.
Once the tent was holier than a whore they ripped of the tent and called it 'the beast' it was a big green thing right next to the wild mouse ride. It wasn't there the last time I went.
The other one - which was there when I last went was near the Oblivion - it was smaller and had spacemen inside but not as good as the first one. I did like the station bit though it was like a buck rodgers 70's style space port - but shitter.
I love that place!

I knew I wasn't making that up. The Beast was great, wasn't there The Avalanche as well?
MouseTrap was like sitting in a shopping trolly being told "best of luck to you..." before being pushed off a cliff.

I think it was taken down before it fell down - if that didn't actually happen on year I think...

You're right it was. I seem to recall the weight of my Dad sitting behind me nearly crushed every rib.
I just winced in breathless pain for the entire experience.

has to be the one at Blackpool - I went on that as a youngster and ended up with bruises all down my left side. I felt like I'd been in a rugby match it was that rough.

Was like being punched by angry dwarves repeatedly.
