Bonspiel: curling, a good winter game in Scotland and Flanders.

Curling being played in Bruegel’s ‘Hunters in the Snow’ and on Lake of Mentieth beside Flanders Moss. A ‘bonspiel’ (the word is Flemish) happens rarely and only when the ice freezes enough to support a large number of  curlers to play in a tournament.
