Fame at last

The Daily Mail article about the chicken racing.

They do get their facts wrong though - this year was the 25th anniversary so therefore it hasn't been going for over 100 years!!

The photo of the man giving his chicken a drink of beer is our cheeting cheetah friend. The next photo down is Lucy and the one two down is of Cheeting Cheetah Rick and stood next to him is Mick, wearing dark coat and baseball cap.

The DM have taken it rather seriously (as have the Daily Telegraph) - everything Collette said was in jest!

I want to move to your village, you guys look like you have so much fun.

Sorry, the race didn't make the TV here this year, but it did in 2011.
