It was a busy weekend. I'm doing a series of pics of world champions in strange peculiarly British "sports". After undoubted success at the World Marbles Championships earlier in the year, it was the turn of the World Custard Pie Championships near Maidstone on Saturday. Arrived a bit late and the semi-finals were already taking place.
#1 I forsee a major hair washing session
#2 It's custard, but not as we know it. A more gloopy and sticky substance I've never seen.
#3 Action packed
#4 Our hairy friend in action....
#5 The winning team and new world champions, the "High Pressure Cleaning Company", who could well take advantage of their own business assets after the event.
#6 Karl Hickmott, captain of the winning team.
Overall, quite a hoot. Bit annoyed I didn't get there earlier to shoot the 4 Germans dressed as blonde frauleins. Camera gear was largely unscathed though some blobs of splatter did hit here & there.
Full set here.
Cheers!
