Hi everyone,

Went down to Goose Fair last night and it was nice to see there are still some classic machines still about such as JPM's Roller Coaster (and Sonic The Hedgehog), also played on Road Hog that was in pretty good condition and was very generous in giving the £6 JP after only £1 in! There was one Psycho Cash Beast machine but it was in a very sorry state (decals were so damaged you couldn't see any of the features or cash prizes!!). It was also nice to not see any DOND's!

What did surprise me was the amount of £25 25p machines there... how can they get away with having these in under 18 areas?

I've seen this instance before, the Arcade that comes down with the travelling fair to Worthing for the Festival had a lot of them before.

Saw numerous fair wagons travelling towards Hull today. One breaking down on the A63, literally 10 miles from destination.

Starts on Friday and no doubt plenty of classic machines as well as current ones.

I get to go this year for the first time in 3 years due to holidays likes. This years late holiday being a week later. Hopefully, I'll remember the camera and get a few shots if theres any substantial classics.

Gambling Commission turns a blind eye as travelling fairgrounds are difficult to police...

I was there last night.

There was a trailer with 8 x global £5 20p play. (played brilliant, should be the legal stakes ratio!)

I jaclpoted all of them within 2 or 3 pound, which surpised me, got a £15 to feature on one.

Put most of it back in a £10 JP Rollercoaster, which I thought I play for old time sakes, it sucked! Who says the old machines are the best!
