Challenge No. 79 - Scottish Highland Games
We're going to host a far away version of the Scottish Highland games. Teaching the locals how to "toss their caber" and "throw their hammer" with whatever resources we can muster together.

Highland games was great fun and earned us plenty of karma points. We had to teach a group of Indian kids Highland Games
The games went absolutely brilliantly. A thousand times better then we could ever have imagined. The kids were fantastic and the smiles and laughter were overwhelming.
We "taught" (using that word in the loosest form) the little nippers how to Haggis Throw (with a coconut) and how to Hammer Throw (with some natural rubber which we made ourselves). We then progressed to tug-of-war and Lee, very masculingly, cut down a banana tree so, we began to toss. Naturally - us being competitive pr*cks - the kids never stood a chance of beating us at any of the games! Scotland 7 - India 0.
We then gave out the rest of the football tops. The kids were brilliant! More importantly though, we now have hardly any luggage - which is even brillianter!
