So how about a reminder of some you have loved from years gone by.
We’re talking about the summer fairs where you can do everything from savouring a strawberry tea to trying your hand at the stalls.
We have 11 photos to share from Hartlepool and East Durham. Were you pictured trying to beat the goalie, walking the plank or manning the cake stand?
Take a look and tell us more if you spot a scene which brings back happy memories.
1. Did you beat the goalie?

2. Walking the plank in 2010
This looks like a winner at Throston Primary School where you could walk the plank, and dig in to tasty cakes at the 2010 summer fair. Remember this? Photo: FLR
