    Ian Hawkes, originally from Llandrindod Wells, triumphed in the world
    bog snorkelling championships in Llanwrtyd Wells in Powys on Monday.

    No mention of the bike event, though...

    IIRC Myra was the female world champion. Apparently category entries
    are on the single digit scale so I suspect she may well still hold the
    title.

    Converted to parenthood! Seen her and Simon a few times since and she
    still cycles but I gather doesn't have oodles of spare time to hang out
    here like some of us ;-)

    That's because it happens earlier on - 9 July this year.

    And this year the ladies World Championship was won by a Louise Powell
    in 1 minute 23 seconds.

    Llanweryd Wells is a great place for a holiday, if not bog-snorkelling -
    we often visit the annual Mid Wales Beer Festival.

    I can heartily recommend bog snorkelling as well as Llanwrtyd Wells.
    And typing carefully if you aren't Welsh.

    Well done this year's competitors, it's people like them who make this
    country what it is!
