00:08I know there is a, I think I believe a couple of new ones.

00:13There's always scary ones, but there's always a nice gentle one for the littler people as well.

00:18There's plenty on offer for those looking to go to new heights.

00:22And options for people who are keen to drive their own fun.

00:27It's a true family affair for both the punters and the operators.

00:32Around that move it ride there, that's me cousins there.

00:35This is me cousins, got a set of bungees here and the teacups.

00:37Me auntie's got a food van behind you and all that type of thing.

00:39So it's like a big family sort of thing this is.

00:42Stallholders working hard to prepare for the thousands of people coming through the gates.

00:47I've been going all morning just doing this bit.

00:49And we're still going, so a little bit.

00:51And the heat doesn't help.

00:53It's been a roller coaster of emotions for some operators

00:56who say red tape and bureaucracy on permit approvals

00:59mean they can't put up their tallest rides this year.

01:21A warning worth heeding.

01:29I actually feel really violated by that experience.

01:39I think it's going for you.

01:40How do you do that?
