I know you're joking but if it was a man on there there would be no mention of weight :mad: they have a tough job and looking at posts on here this last few days most would love to see these women fail, edited to say after reading the latest post , my post rings true

They must receive a massive amount of hampers from the creameries and other merchants every Christmas.

They get very very well paid over it all

It happens in every business, wasn't getting on about someone's looks, I thought both looked very well tonight.
Just thought many suppliers covering 700 acres they would be first on the Christmas goodies list.
I know as children we always looked forward to the hampers, but that was different times.

I think you're right Whelan, I sense a little bit of sexism or something like it anyhow! No need for weight comments really

Ok. But I wasn't getting on about anyone's weight?? I thought they both looked well. Just commenting on my experience of suppliers handing out hampers at Christmas and imagining that for someone in charge of the ploughing.
In fairness I'd say it's a difficult thing for them. Probably provides more awkwardness than anything for someone under scrutiny from others.

I'm reminded of a story from around here when I was a child.
The weighing scales that you put a coin in for your weight came to town outside the chemist.

Two local bachelor brother's lived along with their sister, also unmarried. They all decided to get weighed this day. The two brothers were disappointed with their own weights but delighted with the sisters! She was a larger lady.
For months the brothers went around bragging about how well she weighed!

There must be a sale on shovels.

This'll be the century when we look past race, religion, gender, age, weight, disability and sexuality. And discrimination or praise shall be done away with of each.

There'll be only two ways to describe people.

Knob or Not.

It'll never happen though.
Not when parts of the demography constantly look for special treatment and when those constantly look to differentiate themselves from the rest of the group.

Anna Marie was on the radio saying if you turned up before 12.30 yesterday it was your own fault as you were told a decision was going to be made then. A bit arrogant I thought

She actually comes across as very disagreeable. Her mother, while, no doubt, a tough cookie, possesses a certain charm. Anna Marie usually looks like she is chewing wasps!

All over for another year.

Feel free to start a new ploughing thread next year.
This one has reached its sell by date.

Thanks. GC.
