WELCOME to the website of TAITSO - John Tait frae Hawick in the Scottish Borders
This site has been created to help bolster support for TAITSO in the "Am A Weel Kent Face" competition 2007.
The competition, which is in its fourth year, is the brainchild of those Fitness gurus from thinkfitness in Hawick and is run as part of the Hawick Summer Festival.
Each contestant has to win not only the public vote but participate in 'fitness' type trials on which they are scored depending on their effort and other attributes.
The competition is a bit if fun which is taken 'seriously' by some - not by TAITSO though!!!! (Hence the website!)
Thanks for visiting the site. While you are here, why not sign the guest book and leave a comment?
