Addington Street "Victorian" Fair - Is it worth it?

Greetings one and all! Sorry I've not been on in a while but it's been a hectic couple of weeks and now I'm able to relax a bit with a few days off!

So..........................
The Addington Street "Victorian" Fair. it's a simple question. is it worth it? I've not been in a couple of years but it would seem that this year TDC are doing the old red tape bit with liability insurance etc.

Part of me says I should understand because of safety etc etc - but hang on! My memory of this infamous street fair is nothing more than a boot fair with a few people in victorian costumes.

So it's a simple question, personally I don't think it's worth it. Sad to say, but there aren't really many shops there any more.

If you're stuck for something to do on sunday, you'd be better off nipping up to the boating pool on the westcliff as there's a superb model boat day going on there. And it actually makes a lovely afternoon out. Mrs Daktari and myself went there a couple of years and were pleasantly surprised at how enjoyable it was.

Or of course you can but some tatt in Addington Street!
