Fill your boots with onions - Literally!

Clevedon's heaviest onion competition hits town tomorrow so get digging in the garden or (whispering quietly) check out the veg section in the Veg Box on Old Street.

The gloves come off at 8pm when the contest begins to see who has grown the heaviest onion this year at the Royal Oak on Copse Road just back from The Beach. 

This is the second year the competition has taken place at the Oak and landlords Linda and Charlie are hoping for even more entries. 

Enthusiasts from all over Clevedon are welcome to take part and maybe even beat reigning champion Russell Beynon. 

The rules state that all roots are to be trimmed off, outer skins removed to the first complete skin and leaves are to be trimmed to no more than five milimetres. 

Do you know your onions? Literally?
