Hi All

BBC news is reporting that the world record for a custard pie fight was beaten by 250 people at a summer camp on Mersea Island in Essex.

It looks like the reporter really got into the swing of things and the official world record Adjudicator got one too!!! I can't remember anything like this when Roy Castle presented record breakers though!!!

If you also have a look at the Daily Gazette website:

you will see a couple of ladies who really seemed to enjoy themselves.

I think Bill needed to be taken on as a consultant though, to make it a little more messy!!!!

And all in dinky plastic ponchos to keep the tiny quantity of custard off them! Of the 250, did anyone actually get messy at all?

There seemed to be a lot of wasted pies on the ground.
