Yo: Alun, You are wrong regardless of your Guinness book of record's. That's England, past tense,
growing pumpkins for competition was started in Canada, using a set of rules fair to all, they have been
extended to be fair to all parts of the world including you & your area. And still open to more changes, how
can you knock it. Will the Guinness book of records come up to date or just fire you.

Yo Drew,
Sorry my friend but you are wrong with this comment. As long as a pumpkin
is weighed on certified scales with somebody to judge that it was in a sound condition
then this would stand as a record. By saying that it has to be a certain date is of no
importance at all. The GPC and WPC etc have no powers to make growers take
pumpkins to weigh-offs on a certain day just to get it recorded as a new record. Ask the
Guiness book of records and they will say the same thing...I know...I've judged for
them.
Alun
