Who needs TV and computer games?

Especially when there's Dingle's Fairground Museum close to hand? That's where I went yesterday with my IBC and our two grand-daughters. Dodgems, Ghost Train, Waltzer, Distorting Mirrors, Hook-a-Duck and other old-fashioned fairground attractions, followed by a picnic of enormous proportions. A good day was had by young and adults alike.

Thankfully everything there is as it was with no over-burdening restrictions caused by modern Health and Safety regulations. Not that the rides were unsafe, they just had that edge of uncertainty that made them more exciting. They are completely different to anything that the modern child routinely encounters and our two loved them. Long may Dingle's continue!
