fairground

If you're walking around a fairground you don't expect a quadcopter to land on your head.

Height restrictions on fairground rides are easily thwarted by putting bits of wood in your shoes.

Customers who try their luck at fairground games of chance (find the lady, shooting mechanical ducks etc) would be called punters.

How is this different than a fairground caricaturist that draws subjects in the Simpsons style?

OK - a bit like the fairground game of trying to knock coconuts off a stand by throwing a wooden ball at them.

But the undocumented workers who handle your food, fix your car brakes, built your house and construct the fairground rides get a free pass.

Or do what this author does and just set up your own small tent miles outside the fairground because that's what makes your soul happy.

Most fairground attractions are assembled in a few hours.

I’m not saying it wasn’t huge, but there was a lot more to HL’s storytelling than just the “animatronics on a fairground ride” stuff.

Also, under British law, a contract is not enforcible if the person who accepted a signature knows that the contract's preconditions weren't met - for example, if you sign a safety waiver which says "I declare I have not been drinking" and you clearly have, the waiver is void and the fairground are up for damages if you hurt yourself on their ride.
