Cheers for the interest so far lads.

Craig, it would be great if Basement Productions would sponsor an event - if all six events are sponsored by different gyms then thats £600 already before the fundraising begins - We want to do £5000 this year!!!!

We have a better location and hopefully an even bigger and better turnout this year - will be appealing to the hospice for some help in publicising this, the local press should be keen to cover as it raised so much interest last year.

I am thinking of May 2010 - how does this tie in with other comps? Also, I would like to tie in a title of Guildford's strongest Man - can we just do this or would I need to agree it with someone?

Anyway, thanks again lads - It will be a corker!!

Help for heros is 29th May and it looks like Englands 105's final will be 30th. So hopefully thats the Bankholiday all tied up! Unless you have it on the Bankholiday Monday, then a full three days of strongman in Swindon, Reading and Guildford. What a weekend that would be! Maybe just maybe the lads coming down from up north will make a weekend of it down south and then you southern lads can show the NORTHERNERS how to drink SHANDY!!

Got your PM Craig - may well ask you to help out if you dont mind!! More details as things progress!!

It doesnt have to be May - selfishly, my wife is due to give birth on 4th of July so I wanted to try and get the comp safely out of the way before the baby turns up (and babies sometimes come early!!!!)

Could do June or August instead as long as its early June or Late August? Will see what availability the venue has?! Sounds like May is a bit full already!

Tried to enter this last year and it was full and I was gutted !

Please can this time be I put in for the novice category asap, I can pay money up now if it secures my place.

I presume the novice weights and events will remain the same.

Any chance of an under 105kgs class with the same weights used last year for the novice this time Happy !

If my memory serves me right it was
320kgs tyre flip
90 kgs log press
limo pull
medley
205kgs deadlift

I'm up for the open.

Lots of grippy stuff, maybe the deadlift could be max frame deadlift or whatever to look good rather than a hold with arm over arm and farmers?

But as I am a NOOB I will just do whatever and enjoy it, and Nathan will do it as I will make him!

I like the idea of doing an arm over arm or event where the kids can take part, like a bus with them on or something.

Could add some fun and have a tug o war with thier dads too, like 3 vs 1 or soemthing?

yeah, not as part of the event but maybe as an expo, 3 dads vs one strongman sort of thing for a small prize - maybe pay to enter or something

tyre (same as novice), keg carry (same as novice), frame carry (220?) medley
limo pull/4x4 push (full of people) - KILLER EVENT!!
stones over yoke - 125 for 5(?) reps, and ? for ? reps!!
