Exclamation Anyone going CHEESEROLLING tomorrow??

As a veteran cheese roller (well 4 times - but that's enough to certify you insane..), I'll be going up to spectate tomorrow - anyone else??

www.cheese-rolling.co.uk

If you've never seen it or never heard of it then you won't believe your eyes....

Warning..Cheeseophobics stay away... hehe

Coopers Hill off the A46 (between Cheltenham and Stroud IIRC) at 12noon Monday 31st May. Don't be late as it's finished by 1pm.

Im thinking of doing it this year, seeing as i live 5 mins from it.

Under no illusions i might win or anything- but gotta be done for a laugh.
perhaps go dressed head to toe in bubble wrap or something.

Speaking from experience there are 2 things that you need to have a successful day (ie not to break any bones or have a serious injury)

1. Wear some sturdy boots - Army style, etc
2. Get absolutely bladdered beforehand - that way when you fall you are more relaxed and you reduce the chance of injury - plus it seems like a good idea after lots of lager.....

Have a search on google for cheese rolling - there is loads of info on the net - including some video footage.

Happy hunting..

Default Anyone go then??

I did see a nice red classic WRX thingy parked nearby.

I only saw 3 people stretchered off the hill (may have missed some though) - one with a suspected broken back I heard someone saying.

Good fun though.. hehe
