    Well I recently just came back from the Tug Of War World Championships 2008 in Faenza, Italy.

    To say the least it was ery successfull for my club as we won 2 Gold medals, being the first team ever from Northern Ireland to do so, also Scotland where also very successfull as well as Rep. Of Ireland, unluckily for the English, you'se got 2 bronze.

    To show the actual technic required for tug of war here is both ends of the final of the 560kg Wolrd Championships between Northern Ireland (Richhill) and Scotland (Scottish Select)

    Just want to share my extremely happy time with everyone else, especially when i had my 19" Widescreen Samsung screen waiting for me when i got home.
