Gilles lives! should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Oh I have many fun fair stories from days gone by which include, helping a German roll his go-kart by spraying beer on the then wooden kart track ! (he was fine after and shared a beer with us ).

Evacuating the stippers and a few hundred punters from the 'strippers' tent by putting a gas pellet under the canvas (sorry if you were in there at the time !).

Shooting the fairy lights in the trees at the shot gun stand (not good ) and also taking out the star prize at the 'shoot the fishing wire to win a prize', pellet gun stand...that was a small black and white tv that went with a quite a bang ! The owner then chased my mate with a real shot gun asking for payment, luckily he vanished into the crowd !

We also used to get involved in the drag racing at Garage Bleu on a Sunday night, anything with wheels used to go up the strip !

Looking back I'm glad that we all have matured and grown old since then but I do miss that old fun fair on the Saturday night !
