Young farmers dress code at show.

Mum used to do the hay turning on her own 434 . One day we were working by the river when a naked fisherman leapt out of the reeds and started waving at her.with all his fishing tackle on display. When he realised it was a woman, he nearly died. It turned out he had been relaxing more and more in the sunshine until he fell asleep naked, then woke up when a big fish tugged his line, and he just leapt up wanting to share the moment with anyone.
Mum didn't bat an eyelid, and actually went to the petrol station and bought him a new roll of film; and took his picture with the fish, when she came up for lunch.
Another time, a very lovely young lady came past lying face down on a lilo thing in the river. Couldn't figure out what she was going to do when she reached town.

I’m trying to get dressed to go on a date tonight and it’s really hard to decide whether to wear a check shirt with blue jeans or blue jeans with a check shirt, and then choosing the shirt and jeans is going to take some bossing

Just take the speedos option then. Date can only go one of two ways then!!

Hang them properly on hangers in the bathroom while you have a shower. Bit of steam, heat and gravity n bobs yer uncle.

I object to paying over £100 for a coat with no sleeves - aka the Harper Adams life jacket

Dr. Alkathene · Jun 24, 2018

Got my schoffel body warmer before they was fashionable

Been out this afternoon, smart shirt, blue jeans and a pair of bobby dazzler shoes. Oh and my sunglasses on

Don’t worry I will be back in Bekina Thermolites and boiler suit in about 9 hours

They aren’t as creased as they look, I dragged them all out of wardrobe to take picture and then shoved them all back in

It sure is cringey stuff!!

They are agriculture's response to Sheldon Cooper from the Big Bang Theory.

My mate refers to them as Diesel Nerds.

I got one years ago too.
I got a cheap lookalike one two years ago and it's ready for the bin, the pockets have holes in them, and the zip is poor.

My last pair of work Redbacks were bought in 2014, and were just replaced a couple of weeks ago, having had no care what so ever and a good share of cow sh1t. I used to go through 2 pairs of cheap brands most years.

I'm not into the vanity that often leads shallow types to buy brands, but I am into getting quality.

That’s the line I used with the wife to explain spending £235 on a pair of Meindl boots on Friday. Apparently, the business now owes her shoes to at least the same value.

And therefore your best response is to not buy one !!

One of my favorite sayings can be applied here...

Buy shite buy twice !!

And to that I say rubbish!

Range Rover proves that paying through the nose does not mean you buy quality.

Since when has a Range Rover been associated with quality ??

I definitively wasn’t conforming to current fashion trends.
Walked round the cattle and sheep lines today dressed in a Lister singlet, heiniger polo shirt, fagan jeans and a pair of moccasins.
