Alcester Mop

You know autumn has arrived when the Mop Fair rolls into town.   I thought it was really quiet.  The two really big rides were busy enough though.

This is one of the rides which you would have to be mad to go on.

Incidentally,  on my way down to Alcester I passed the place where the travellers have been camped for the past week (see yesterdays Blip)

Apart from some closely cropped circles in the verge where their horses had been tethered and a small neat pile of ash where their fire had been there was no sign they had been there.  They had made a fantastic job of clearing up before they left.
