Prizes for everybody



Hook a duck and take your pick



The Cakewalk





Its great to have these great steam roundabouts to remind us of our youth,



High Above Trinity Square - for fun!



The extravaganza would not be the same without the helter skelter.

The Great Steam Roundabouts



The detail, the colour, the wonder of it all



A wonderful face



A prize for everyone



Up and down in quick succession goes the giant octopus!

 

Round and round on the toddlers ride - O so colourful



The North Wales Model Engineers



The best of model railways





Fisticuffs - the boxing booth is back!



The Llandudno and Colwyn Bay Tramway Society proudly display their replica tram.



On the promenade on a fine calm sunny Bank Holiday Monday,
the Llandudno Lifeboat volunteers offer all manner of souvenirs for sale ......



..... and proudly display their "Andy Pearce" Mersey Class Lifeboat.  But  .....
