You cant fail to have noticed the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge in aid of charity which has been flowing not only across the nation but also the globe. And now its Haylings turn.

Blood curdling screams arent the result of things that go bump in the night. Instead exclamations can be heard as residents councillors entertainers and publicans endure ice cold water poured over their heads.

In a long line of bodies stepping up to be doused Councillor Leah Turner Laura Hutcheson from the Royal Shades and the Great Raymondo (Lifeboat Inn karaoke legend) are all getting in on the act.

The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge is to help raise funds for Wateraid. Since the internet phenomenon went viral with support from high profile stars Tom Cruise and Justin Bieber the charity has received a flood of monies.

If youre still unsure what all the fuss is about then do a search online for videos of participants drenching themselves.
