    You brought the sun to Scotland again in so many ways Eddy! The log is called a caber. You ought to try and get back and go for the BIG Highland Games in September 'The Braemar Gathering', the King and Royal Family go to that one. :)

    Brilliant Eddy. I love how you interact with and appreciate folks. That game you were watching is hammer throwing. Different from the usual hammer. It's a heavy ball on a pole and as you swing it, you have to remain static. Once they introduce ludo as an event, I'll enter as an athlete! Cheers matey

    • @alfiekelly5914
      @alfiekelly5914 2 місяці тому

      Perhaps not. I'd only roll about as if I'd been poleaxed if someone rolled a six! A wee game of backgammon perhaps. I cheat at that too!
