Griffin the goldfish and the matter of animal abuse at fairs

04-10-2009 19:29

Bruise
Every year in Evesham we are subjected to something called the “Mop” Fair which turns the town into a hive of debauchery, noise , disruption and bright fairground rides.

People put up with it because others enjoy themselves but there is always an air of menace which gets worse year on year along with the rudeness of the fair staff who strut around like they own the place. We decided to have a peek a) because it is right next door b) because there was a rumour that goldfish were being given away as prizes.
