also there were some Scary Furry Monsters. Music was being performed, kids playing, people browsing the stalls when all of a sudden, we were confronted by a couple of monsters. They seemed to come out of nowhere!

A spokesman for Nottinghamshire Police at the scene said “he didn’t believe a word of it.
