I'm glad I live in a world where there is an Annual World Championships Pooh Sticks tournament. Apparently, this year was the 24th but here's the write-up from last year's run. Who knew?

I love the idea of this - my kids have their own version called Who Can Throw Rocks the Farthest in Any Body of Water. Think it'll catch on? Wherever did you find it?

There's a site called Happy Campers in England and they have a calendar page and in March it said the Pooh Sticks Championships. Start training now!
