'''Curling''' is a winter sport, similar to [[bowls]] but played on ice (today generally at an [[ice rink]]) with the jack replaced by a circular target painted on the ice (the "house") and the bowls by polished and shaped, swiftly spinning stones that are slid towards it, generally of [[granite]], though a variety of the game is also played with [[swedes]] (rutabagas). <ref>http://www.rutabagacurl.com/</ref> The game is popular among people of many ages, the elderly and infirm being permitted the use of a stick to launch their stones.
