Fox Tossing anyone ???

[Elen Sentier]

We've just been listening to the News Quiz - a weekly moment of sanity . It finished with the following quote from wiki on Augustus the Strong...

Augustus's great physical strength earned him the nicknames "the Strong," "the Saxon Hercules" and "Iron-Hand." He liked to show that he lived up to his name by breaking horseshoes with his bare hands and engaging in fox tossing with a single finger.[SUP]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augustus_II_the_Strong#cite_note-sitwell-1[/SUP]

OK, who's for a spot of fox tossing this afternoon then ???

Squirrel fishing anyone?

 

[Elen Sentier]

Not tried that, is it good ?

behind every creative woman there's usually a very talented cat ...

Squirrel fishing is great. Piece of squirrel food on a string. They grab it and hang on.

Apparently it became a craze in London parks a few years ago, and they had to pass a local by-law after people complained about people whirling squirrels around on a string
