All the fun of the fair.

I'm off to Goose Fair in my lovely home town of Nottingham on Friday...sights, sounds, lights, rides, mushy peas and mint sauce, mmm.
Looking forward to a dabble in the dodgy shed arcades that will be there...madness really to play but it's like the equivalent of say..base jumping...dodgy as fuck but great if you get away with it and make a few quid in the process. I'll be looking for the screwed down to hell sub 70% machines that some operator will have managed to get running with his trusty soldering iron...the older hi tecs that curiously have no lamp at the all important place for the skill feature...the dodgy payout tube/hopper of course (mental note: don't bank more than a fiver) and of course even though this is a travelling fair..the resident sharks that will have taken up residence alongside the kids that will hassle you for 10p whilst the operators take no notice they are doing their bollocks on an over 18's only machine. Wish me luck...I hope I come across a token JP machine just for nostalgia's sake...maybe I could exchange them for candy floss.

When you get there see if there is a cash casino, the one that you can get notes from and let me know, Thanks

I often thought of visiting this fair (isn't it the biggest in Europe??).I feel sure there was plenty of do-able stuff there in the past...nowadays it's probably all chipped 5p conversions...
Last time I was at a fair they chased me off with the dogs...

Let us know how you get on.

Don't get what you're on about Z ?
Are you talking about a machine?

what zorro means is a cash crane the one when it drops the magnet down and it picks the box up wiyh the money in they can be done by highly skilled players if the magnet fits most of them now have been fiddled so you cant win on them so unless you know what your doing stay well away a friend can do them but got stung as he didnt check as it was on his run and has been for some time but have changed over the last couple of days

p.s. im not one of those highly skilled players i cant get the hang of it
