The smell of candy floss, hot dogs and burgers and the ringing of bells, screams, laughter and clinking of coins in an arcade game are just a few of the senses assaulting features that come part and parcel with a night at the local fair. Travelling fairs are a staple of a British childhood, and the Englefield Green Steam fair was no exception. The air just turning to chill so my feet were cold in their boots, but somehow your body stays warm from the yellow hue of the glowing light bulbs which tomorrow will be gone.
