Douglas Cordonas Funfair were trying to set up for the March fair in Dumfries. Although the flooding has caused a delay the fair will still go ahead.
Luckily no one was hurt and none of the equipment was damaged during the flood.
DGWGO have spoken to the team from Cordonas Fair, that are currently based at Dumfries – they are very sorry that the recent flooding has meant a delay in them setting up safely.
