How good are you at making funny faces? At the Egremont Crab Fair in September you can test your best against the rest and see if you manage to win the coveted title of Gurning champion – there’s a men’s, women’s and even a children’s category. The competition is part of a festival that’s been running since 1267 and includes other traditional sports like horse- and pony-leaping and pipe-smoking.
