Getting
rid of your Christmas tree can prove a bit of a problem. If it has roots you
can always plant it. Or you can drop it off at a local zoo (check they want it
first) as many animals enjoy playing with a discarded tree. Or you can get your neighbours together and
do as they do in Weidenthal, Southern Germany and have a Tree Flinging
Competition. Competitors bring their own trees, minus the
tinsel and baubles. They then attempt to throw them as high and as far as they possibly
can.
Frank Schwender, 48, won the tournament for the
third year in a row, with a total distance of 22.45 metres. Phew. The other
plus side to flinging your trees is you would definitely burn off the extra pounds
you piled on from the Christmas pud!
