Today should have been our ‘blue riband’ day. Bog snorkelling, ditch racing, wife carrying and husband dragging - always a fantastic climax to the #WorldAlternativeGames in #LlanwrtydWells. Sadly not this year. But bring it on in 2021 - come join the fun!
Today was supposed to be the opening ceremony of the 2020 World Alternative Games: two and a half weeks of fantastic fun in Llanwrtyd Wells. Circumstances dictated otherwise. But we WILL be back next year! Thanks to @putting_gott for this great blog:
