Goose Fair

I remember going to the Goose Fair in Nottingham in the late 1940s and we used to stay with my Uncle Jim Bradbury in Hucknall. On the way back from one of these trips my dad bought some meal for the pigs (he and grandad had lots of them on an allotment), anyway it was late when we got back and Dad took it down the cellar, and unbeknown to Dad, Mum had saved coupons to get eggs and sugar and made a cake for my 2 brothers birthdays, well did he not plonk the meal down on top of this cake, I am sure they heard my mother back in Hucknall the way she raved at Dad. I would love to hear from anyone in Hucknall especially if you remember the Bradburys.
