I managed to find 10 minutes this morning to have a look at some of the things happening around the world while thinking to myself “Where would be better than in the office?”
Well I’ve missed Oktoberfest, and October just doesn’t seem to have that much going on, suppose everyones waiting on winter and christmas to arrive.
Anyhoo!
In Scotland we have the Scottish Cup Final, I prefer the Scottish Junior Scottish Cup myself.
In America they have the Superbowl.
In Australia they have the Melbourne Cup.
But Switzerland, it has Cow Fighting, Yes Cow Fighting.
It’s called the Combat des Reines and it’s taken seriously by the Swiss, attracting around 50,000 visitors a year.
Ok, it’s not as gruesome as it sounds the horns of these angry cows havebeen blunted and it results in more of a pushing contest and even sometimes the cows can’t be bothered to fight.
