Guess the weight of the groom

I organised the games at a friend's wedding a couple of weeks ago and 'Guess the weight of the groom' was a little number that went on throughout the day. Guests put a £1 in the pot, write their guess down, and closest to the actual weight wins the lot.

Reverse running

If your regular run is getting a bit boring then why not give it a lift by doing it backwards. Reverse Running has been increasing in popularity and this weekend saw the first UK Backwards Running Championship in Heaton Park, Manchester. But this is no laughing matter, reverse running is said to burn a third more calories than forward running. So trainers on, best foot backwards and off you fall.

Reverse Pick Pocketing

Reverse Pick Pocketing, the art of putting things in people's pockets without them noticing is an ideal piece of fun to earn you back some karma credits.

Our young cousins played it whilst holidaying in France earlier this month and it proved to be the winner of the week. The only downside was that everyone had the frustrating task of emptying their pockets and replacing the items back around the house at the end of each day.

Tarp Surfing

If you're surf loving but land locked, then why not have a go at Tarp surfing. All you need is a giant piece of tarpaulin and a skateboard. Get your friends to curl over the tarp and ride the tube. Check these guys out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9sdSCa0V-Y&feature=related
