Who shovelled better: The Queen or Obama?

Just after looking at Obama shovelling the dirt over the sapling, made me think how much better the Queen was at it! She was totally into it, almost giving the impression she was ACTUALLY planting a tree. Obama just seemed to slide the dirt over.

Thoughts? (I'm bored)

It's a very well known fact that women are much better at dishing the dirt than men.

Suppose on reflection Mr. President did look like he was digging it.

Im going with Obama here - he has fewer years on the clock than the Queen, so he was able to banter and show a bit more energy in his shovelwork

Im quite bored too...

Obama hasn't been interested in trees since he planted a Bush.

Liz likes shovelling it, Obama prefers a few scoops

*grabs popcorn*

This is going to be the debate to end all debates on AH.

I didn't see Obama do the dirt so I want to highlights or spoilers until I get home.

I'll be back for a frame-by-frame analysis of some HD footage.

Both holes should have been dug by an Irish person, it's outrageous letting these foreigners waltz in a take our shovelling jobs.

Would have to be the Queen. It's in the family. Her father, husband and son were all in the Royal navvies.
