Well, we've just finished at Doncaster Leger, and as predicted it was depressingly poor. Most traditional fairs have followed this pattern and its been really hard going all year. On the upswing, our corporate activities have really taken off, we've just come back from another event at the National Coal Mining Museum for England, we have picked up another couple of University events and we are in the running for half a dozen other coming events.
On a different note, an event we recently attended had a landtrain operating their. It was some charity or another that operated it, which isn't a problem to us, but the train in question drove through the spectators at the event. Now we have to carry out and supply risk assessments for every facet of our operation, we would never had operated that train on safety grounds, more pertinantly the Health and Safety executive would never had allowed us to operate it, so why are our rules so strict, yet others so lax?
