In essence not long after dusk in the town of Ottery St. Mary, all 17 pubs in the town sponsor a tar coated 30 kilogram barrel which is then lit, and hoisted onto the backs of the local 'boys' to run precariously through the town centre with the crowds cheering wildly on..

My GOodness Sis it is a small world after all. I knew both Jim and John had a strange way of saying Hovaher's name. With the Waddington Clan being strange is a badge of honor. :D
Besides the English were always know for interesting costumes and customs.
