I really like the Northolme- a decent ground.....neat and tidy....a reasonable sized stand .....two covered terraces and one open, but all relatively safe standing, in a crude old fashioned way!

Sustenance!  

Scooby`s provided the refreshment.

The vendor`s problems with his onions are well documented, but last season, they seemed well thawed by the time the eatery was open for trade. There was nothing remarkable about the menu. My `Lincolnshire hot dog’ was a bit of a struggle to consume, but it filled a corner, which is about as good as it gets for the travelling fan.
