First it was the World Worm Charming Championships, now it's the World Conker Championships.
This annual event is happening this Sunday at Aston in Northamptonshire. According to the website it's an event where "modern-day gladiators fight for glory".
I'm sure it's great fun, but I think that's overdoing it a bit chaps...
Perhaps the contestants were mice? Then the description would be more appropriate.
They managed to raise £21,000 this year at the conker event which is a very nice result, well done to the winner too.
