A quick look in Derwent Gardens in Matlock Bath.

It runs alongside the River Derwent. I only went as far as the footbridge!

Fun Fair in Derwent Gardens. I'm not sure if this was for the Matlock Bath Illuminations which took a week after my visit!

Ferris wheel and dodgems (I think).

STOKE WINTER WONDERLAND

Shots of the Fun Fair from Curzon Street in Eastside. It was around 11 in the morning, so the sun was directly behind the fun fair at this time of day.

After this, I went in the car park to get closer shots.

It's all part of Bob Wilsons Fun Fair.

These shots I kind of managed to poke through and take shots of these.

Dodgems on the left, a lorry with Lewis Hamilton on the back.

On the Long Vehicle.

Brighton pier in November isn't exactly 'banging', but at least it provides an opportunity to take some photos without lots of people around

Tale of two dogem rides today! I took my God Daughter Eve around the shows again today and after saying 'fun house fun house fun house' all the way to the moor after she enjoyed it as much as she did yesterday she then decided to have another bash at the Dodgems too.

The cutest bit about riding the Dogems with Eve is that if you hands leave the wheel even for a second (even when the car isn't moving anywhere) she'll grab them and put them back on the wheel for you. Not bad for a 2 and a half year old really!

The next dodgem tale happened this evening when I challenged my Dad to a ride. We used to love going on this together when I was a kid but this time we both had our own cars and much to my Dad's disgust mine was much faster than his!

John Scarrott

Sixfields Leisure, Northampton, 25 March 2012

John Scarrott's dodgem track appears to have gained a new feature for this season, a tower on the front to perhaps combine the motion of a Drop Tower with Dodgems, or maybe it's a lighthouse to guide the cars around the track! Seriously, there is no doubt that this photo was taken in Northampton as the Express Lifts tower is so close to the Sixfields ground that its appearance in photos taken there is unavoidable.
