originating in the perth region of scotland
this rugged fast paced game had my hair standing on end
along with it's bagpipe drill team
Scotland rocks!

It is a sport that requires skill, being in shape, strategy, I enjoy the game as a spectator.

The sweeping is very important not just grunt work!!!

Scotland
Curling was invented in medieval Scotland, with the first written reference to a contest using stones on ice coming from the records of Paisley Abbey, Renfrewshire, in February 1541.

I'd say more like 2 curling stones and a broom. She isn't real heavy. Curling stones weigh around 20 kgs. Pretty heavy suckers.
