| Raymond Eddy's giant Fun Fair | ||
Taking over a large expanse of Queens Park the fair will be open from 6.00pm each evening, while also opening on the Carnival day from 11.30am until 10.30pm after the fireworks. All the latest white knuckle rides will be on offer... With the Tagada and Rotor both being new this time. The all time favourite Dodgems, a great chance to let off steam with the object being to bump or be bumped. Or even if you prefer practice your driving skills as well as your three point turns. The Rotor is new and is the ultimate challenge standing against the walls of a circular drum which begins to spin with centrifugal force pushing you against the walls as the floor completely drops away. The Tornado, one of the country's fastest rides is back, an attraction which always proves popular on it's visits to Pudsey with a giant spinning arm swinging 12 -suspended carriages at high speed into the air. Making a return for the year 2002 is the stomach tingling laugh a minute Coaster which spins 360 degrees circular before launching into the air while for the more adventurous will be the imposing giant Rhythm Master ride, a high speed bob sleigh type attraction in which tremendous speed can be experienced forwards or even for more thrills backwards. No fairground experience would be complete without the Waltzers, with this traditional favourite whirling it's passengers on a dizzy ride to music and lights, thrills, spins and grins guaranteed, while the Twister is also set to star. The children are also absolutely spoilt for choice with a mass of attractions from the mini Sea storm to the mini-paratrooper. A ride in a tea cup to a trip on a train. There's everything to experience this year with even chair-o-planes to a traditional mini-octopus. Larger attractions include for the first time a new Ghost Train and a giant Cartoon Circus Fun House while there is also a Crooked Cottage and an Helter Skelter. The traditional fairground games are here also with hook a duck, coconut shys, shooting games and even a special penalty kicker. Anyone hungry can enjoy traditional fairground fayre with hot dogs, hamburgers, to the more sweet candy floss or brandy snaps. It's all at this years fair which as well as opening each evening will be open from 11.30am on the Saturday throughout the carnival and into the night until after the fireworks. |
