The mind boggles !!

[davebro]

must be off his swede

[1ozzy]

Is that the only body part that boggles?

[Redhelen72]

You have to wonder what goes through a person’s head

[1ozzy]

Random thoughts?

[Redhelen72]

Wouldn’t have needed much hollowing out as it would of been as woody and stringy

[1ozzy]

I'd differ on that thought Helen.
Heaps of hollowing out needed, to fit a human inside.
Lots of pumpkin pies made from its innards.

[drmorgans]

Whatever floats yer boat.

Trust the yanks to do something really silly !!

Very large Halloween candle ??

[1ozzy]

The yanks weren't the first Seekz:-)

Apparently the previous record was held by a pom!!

[pastafreak]

Looks like it was held by a guy in North Dakota...

// Hansen asked city officials to bear witness to the feat so that it would be recognized by Guinness World Records. The organization has not yet validated the results, according to the Washington Post, but it confirmed it would beat the current record for “longest journey by pumpkin boat” currently held by Rick Swenson, who traveled 25.5 miles (41.038 km) in Grand Forks, North Dakota, in 2016. //

I've heard pumpkins are popular in Australia...looking for something to do 1ozzy?

Have they got a river that long in Aus?
