Quick roll in the sand anyone?
The folks at today’s Sand Sculpting Festival in Duncannon have broken the world record for ‘Most Sand Angels’.
405 people left their mark in the sand of Wexford’s Duncannon beach in order to break the record.

While this is a wonderful achievement for everyone who turned up to the festival, it might not even be the most impressive achievement of the day.
This unbelievably detailed sand sculpture can also be seen down on the beaches of Wexford this afternoon.

Bit more than a casual bucket-and-spade job.
Another sculpture at the festival depicted a woman training her dragon with a chain. We genuinely do not know how this is possible.
