🎡🎢WINLATON FUNFAIR🎡🎢

Yesterday we took a trip up to Winlaton to go and visit Jamie Clark Fun Fairs and we were not disappointed, the lineup was a little different to last year but was just as good.

It was great to catch up with our good friend Charles Slater on the Remix Waltzer and catch this fantastic waltzer again and it was fantastic to get back on Jamie Clarks new Tornado Twister. As well as these you you have the fantastic Superbowl, James Cowies Xtreme Tagada and Baxter Manders Vortex Round Up.

📍Windy Fields, Winlaton, NE21 6AW (Fair ends today so make sure to get yourself down)
