FOUR marquees and two gazebos went up, but the Tamar Valley Westerners got their tepee up before us.
It was a great day - we had strong men in the Valhalla Show of Strength, the Westerners, a medieval play, all the usual stalls, the owls, the parrots, an amazing dog show with a record 136 entries, Bays Brewery bringing us a beer tent for the first time in years, the round-the-pier swim and live music on the stage.
We have pictures of all these things, but it's way past midnight and all our phones are dead with the pictures on them.
We will upload when things are back to normal.
You need to know that the best dog in show was an Alsatian puppy, the Topsail was a lovely pint, the swim was won by the brilliant Becky Langman ahead of a field that included a man in a mankini who raised £200 for Rowcroft in the process, and the local bands were great.

On Sunday we close with another full day featuring sand sculpting, a cream tea, Brixham Town Band, the Taiko drummers and Songs of Praise.
