Fair Trading
The fair was in Castlebar yesterday, and it seemed every skanger in Connacht was there. By the way, an showing of the ESB Environmental Photography Award winners is still on the Arts Centre, while, in the coffee shop, there is a modern installation, called "Screaming Children with Chain-smoking Mothers" Very contemporary.
No doubt the card-sharps, stall-traders and , most importantly, the chip-van drivers were getting in a bit of last-minute practice before the premier event of the autumn - the Ballinasloe Horse Fair, which takes place next weekend. It is the one weekend of the year when the residents of the town won't have to worry about the smell of the landfill in the town.
