Whitestake, with its leafy lanes and lettuce growing, isn’t the first place I’d think of for weird sports.

Yes, if you fancy a go at axe throwing, get yourself down to Turbary House Leisure Park, behind Duxbury’s in Chainhouse Lane. Under careful instruction, you can channel your inner Viking warrior and hone your skills in a 45 minute session.

If axes aren’t your thing, then there’s plenty of other activities to try - weather permitting - including archery, lazer clay pigeon shooting, Crazy Bugz off roaders for children, and gel blasters.

Watch the video to find out how I got on.
