One of the more popular articles here is this post on the Tough Guy and Gal challenge in Auckland. Where traffic comes from is most interesting: searches for the term ‘cow manure bath’. Now, I’m not up to play with the latest beauty techniques, health fads, or fetishes, but ‘cow manure bath’ is quite a specific term; I don’t think typos are responsible. Whatever floats your boat though.

For the intrepid cow manure bath lovers of the world Googling furiously for more media, here’s a few shots of the recent 2013 edition of the Tough Guy and Gal Challenge at Woodhill Sands to sate your appetite.
