Just Sharing This Dorset knob throwing contest attracts thousands

[smoggy07]

This genuine BBC headline made me giggle so I thought I'd share

More than 5,000 people have attended a "knob throwing" competition in Dorset.

The Dorset Knob Throwing and Food Festival event in Cattistock involves participants tossing the locally made, spherical biscuit as far as they can.

The longest throw was by Dave Morrison, who tossed his knob 21.8m (71ft).
