I thought it was better than the bouncy thing at ?2 for 5 minutes. What I noticed about the slide was that the guy running it when we there couldn't remember which child was which so kept on asking people for extra money. Maybe he was just looking after it for someone for 5 minutes.


The best 2 bits of the fayre for us were definitely the free ones (free bouncy castle on the way in and the fire engine).

I think it should be a requirement for next year that the bouncy castles are run by people who at least slightly like children and who aren't running a total rip off. For example the guy who runs the bouncy castles at Crystal Palace park is a really friendly chap - he even smiles at the children and their parents. I meant to say this to the organisers last year after one of the grumpy guys hired for the Goose Green Fair grabbed my daughter really roughly (she'd only just turned 3 at the time and was very shocked and upset).

Didn't make it this year and thought it was just me but was deterred by the thought of spending a fortune on overly short goes on bouncy castles etc by grumpy unfriendly people. Detracts from the fab friendly stall holders.


Whenever Southwark council do their free bouncy castle for tots that is usually fab, well run and v friendly.

CP Park man is really good with the kids and if they're too small to manage, he'll give you money back or tell the woman he works with to out them on the easier one. Was well impressed.


?2 for 5 minutes seems fair to me, but a quid for one go on the slide is a bit much.

Saw the man in charge of the slide having a row with a 10 year old boy who was asking if his friend could go back on as he'd tripped at the top and fallen down rather than slid down. The man just said "go away. NOW!". Think it could have been handled slightly better!!

agree with everyone else. ?2 for 5 minutes seems expensive. we were at cp park for the first time last week - our older one loved the bouncy slide thing - the bloke running it was really friendly and encouraging, when our younger one couldn't manage it he offered to switch her to the smaller bouncy castle. And it was half the price from what i can remember.

On the other hand they both really enjoyed the donkey ride at the fair, and the people helping out were really friendly.

    • Thought it had been a fish and chip shop at one time?
    • Try Gentrification, those with more money than sense who constantly want something different, when pie and mash isn't good enough for them.  "Argentinian Cornish pasties" give3 me a proper Cornish pastie any day of the week, at least I'd be supporting something traditionally British.   ps. tin hat at the ready........................🤣
    • You really have to go and look at the schools yourself, and do some research. My children went to the same school in different years and had very different experiences. Different school focus on different things. It's very personal. We bought close to the school I wanted to go to, and then moved a bit later, when they were old enough to travel on their own.
    • Not even remotely close to the catchment for charter north over there and would imagine outskirts of east (tho should check recent years). Would leave the Harris’s as more guaranteed options so maybe have a look at those and see if you’d be happy with them as a fallback
