August Happiness

Five things which have made me smile this month...
 
 
1. Great Dorset Steam Fair - all the rides, all the stalls, all the history and all the friends.

 2. Taking my brother on lots of exciting fairground rides at Carters Steam Fair in Bath.

3. A little Scottie dog shortbread on the train!

4. Some great shows at Edinburgh Fringe Festival - Josh Widdicombe, Marcus Brigstocke and Andrew Maxwell had me in stitches.

    I haven't seen a Scottie dog shortbread for years. And I'm ashamed to say that I've driven past Carter's Steam Fair for years without ever considering going in. It's good, then, I take it?

      Carters Steam Fair is definitely worth visiting, lots of old fairground rides and lots of vintage transport. They tour round the South of England for most of the year, not sure where they are at the moment but it should say on their website :-) x
