World Gravy Wrestling Championships

Today is the start of Pennine Lancashire's Festival of Food & Culture. Attractions include: gourmet short breaks, culinary canal cruises, fun with fudge, opera and strawberries, steam train lunches, ale trails and medieval food markets. It continues until the 17th September 2009, but the highlight (for some) will be on the 31st August 2009, when it's the third World Gravy Wrestling Championships.
