    the fairs. it is very nice to be at a fair. The children used have great fun at the fair buying sweets. It is the old people that sell the cattle sheep and pigs. They make bargains for a long time before they would sell the cattle sheep or the pigs. Stock are not very dear now at the fairs and that is why they do be stiff in selling their stock. The buyers come a long way.
