All the fun of the fair

Photos from the Wimbledon Village Fair, held on the Common last Saturday.  The skies may have been glowering and the wind was a little more vigorous than strictly necessary, but the turnout was impressive.  Several thousand people carpeted the fields of Wimbledon Common with display tents, food vans, a garish funfair replete with amusement rides, a stage for musical performances and of course an Audi dealership.  (Well, this is SW19 after all).  Several hundred spectators enjoyed the musical performances, although it must be said that the spectacle of a dozen or so cherubic five-year-olds singing Summer Loving from Grease (‘Tell me more, tell me more, did you get very far?’) was a little peculiar.
