Interesting hour or so spent at the fair. The village hall was full of stalls all of which seemed quite busy. apparently the trade at the fairs has increased in the last year. Quite a bit of Pentax gear on sale.

Good to see you Ken - thanks for encouraging me to have the must have Pentax accessory, a copipod Still as the stall was about to close I got a reduced price!
