The 1st time I heard about the Parra Fair was forever ago when Azrael called me one day, saying something along the lines of:
"Hey, you lazy bastard, rather than us going to the Markets next Sunday, did you wanna come with me and Burnie to this fair at Parramatta Town Hall? - We'll have to go by train, so it'll be a 4:00am start - if you can handle it, but it has heaps of stuff!..."
...or something to that nature.


All I know is that it was awesome and for the next 2 or so years he & I made that journey almost every quarterly time, then once I joined up here at OTCA I learnt that it was used as a regular meeting point - I've lost count of how many I've attended now.

...so with that I've got to say, it's really sad to see that it looks like it's come to an end; typically, it's always a few who spoil it for the many.
