I’m 47 now and when I was a child it always rained when the hoppings were in town!
Gosh, I'd never heard of this, although I spent my childhood in Doncaster (not very close, I admit). We have the same funfair every year in Munich, where one has no difficulty in enjoying the odd jar or two of beer on the side.

The Hoppings were originally in Jesmond Vale , near Vale house
That was interesting Jordan - you learn something new everyday!
Thanks!
Mate Dusseldorf, Herne, Tilburg, Munchen are way bigger than that
You’re probably right, but it’s the way The Hoppings markets itself. Hence my use of the term
the baskets were great , its lost its charm now, bring back steam, old school hand made hand painted, its just all about money since the 70s
Thanks Jordan, interesting and informative as always! 👏🎡🎠🎢🎪🌳🏙️🇬🇧
Glad you enjoyed it!
