    About this ebook

    Barking Mad British Traditions, Customs and Sports

    Crazy things we Brits get up to in our spare time. Want to be champion Welly Wanger or Nettle Eater perhaps?

    In this book you will read about some of the barking mad and wildly eccentric things we British get up to from time to time. You may not believe that some of the customs and traditions really exist.

    You may be asking yourself: “who would eat nettles, they sting don’t they?” Yes nettles do sting. And yes, all the traditions, customs and sporting events you will read about over the following pages are real and do exist.

    As you may have already surmised, a few too many beers and a “friendly discussion” in the pub played their part in the origins and development of quite a few of the things you are going to read about.

    The British are still eccentric and barking mad. And we love it!

    Here Are Just Some of the Barking Mad British Traditions, Customs and Sports You Will Read About Inside...

    Welly Wanging

    Nettle Eating

    Black Pudding Throwing

    Rhubarb Festival

    Toe Wresting

    And another fifteen more Barking Mad British Traditions, Customs and Sports.......

    Hello there, My name is Gary McKraken and I'd like to thank you for checking out my book. I'm interested in all sorts of different things in life. I'm also a keen writer so thought why not put that skill to good use and write/publish books on what I like, what I'm interested in and what others may find helpful. So that's what I've started to do working with Hiccius Doccius Limited. Check out my books below. You'll also be able to see other ebooks I write - I have various topics planned. Thanks again for stopping by. Gary.
