The fair is undercover, so we shouldn't get that wet. I've got my brolly ready and waiting by the door for in the morning. Sue, I will meet you in the cafe in York station about half 9.

The fair seems to be packed out by lunchtime and finding a seat for a rest and a coffee was a challenge in itself for us all last year Haddock even had to go for a feed while there ( must admit it was Livvie that wanted food or at least that is what Jeanette told us !!!!!!! LOL ) Love Jan
