I have great pleasure in being able to congratulate Master Daniel Hume on becoming the New UK & European Giant Squash Record Holder. Today 6 Year Old Daniel, from the North of England, His Grandfather Mr Paul Harrigan, and a host of witnesses weighed Daniels Squash. The Squash was weighed on Certified Scales and weighed in at an amazing 990.6 Lbs and was is perfect condition.

More information to follow.

Regards
Mike

Once again sincere congratulations on growing the giant squash. I could not be more pleased than the outcome of the record breaking effort. I don`t know if my posting was mis construed as negative. I know sincere means sincere.
To quote Fulla "and another one hmmmmm" i`m not sure what that means - once again sincere congratulations John.

Congratulations Daniel, I thought it wouldn't be long before someone broke my UK record from last year. I hope you and your Grandpa get as much fun out of growing them as I have, I have met some brilliant people, come on you older boys don't let us kids take all the prizes! WELL DONE DANIEL HERES TO NEXT YEAR
