YOU would have been forgiven for doing a double take if you saw people racing along... in bath tubs!
A charity bath race in Holton-le-Clay proved to be a runaway success.
The teams assembled at the cricket club before racing around the village Le Mans style.
And all of the racers stayed high and dry in their wacky bath tub creations.
The event was organised by the cricket club to raise money for When You Wish Upon a Star.
Chairman of the social committee at the club, Dave Parnham, said: "We help a lot of local people in both the football teams and the cricket teams.
"We are always in need of raising money to help pay for goals and equipment.
"I helped organise a bath tub race about 20 years ago and it was great fun.
"We thought that it would be a great way to help raise money for the club and for a great charity.
"All the entrance fees for the teams have gone to the club and everything they raise in sponsorship will go to When You Wish Upon A Star."
Dave said the event is also a great way to publicise the club and bring the community together.
"With all the new houses and the new residents coming into the village I think a lot of the community is being lost," he said.
"We hope here at the club that holding events like this, getting people and businesses from the village together will help rebuild that community atmosphere.
"We have so much more planned for the club and the residents.
"All these ideas will hopefully bring people together to see that although this is a cricket ground we are not just about sport – but that we are about the local community, too.
"The bath race will hopefully become an annual event and judging by the interest we have had so far it can only get better!
"We have had so many people calling up and asking about the race.
"We have seen five great teams enter this year with some weird and wonderful creations.
"They have become really competitive in a fun way with one another and the finished baths are great!"
Vice chairman of the social committee, Mark Wainwright, added: "The event is a just a way of bringing back the village feel.
"We have lot's more planned for the rest of the year including a bonfire fireworks party, a vegetable and produce show for harvest festival and so much more."
