Aero is in a young farmer's competition

[chescar]

The 2 sons of our YO and farmer are young farmers - they meet every week and do 'young farmers' stuff.

Anyway, the young farmers want a lesson in judging horses. They often judge cattle and sheep and such, but for some reason they want to judge horses and our farmer has put Aero's name forward - then asked me if it was ok afterwards

So on Monday evening a coachful of young farmers are descending on our yard and judging horses!
I haven't got a clue what to do!!!!!!

The farmer just said I need to wander round the school with Aero and look pretty. Not sure if he meant me or the horse!

Wish us luck - will definately get photos of this!

There must be other horses in the competition - but I'm not sure who.
Get the feeling Aero was picked because he looks like a cow - and the young farmers know a thing or two about cows.

How young are we talking? I usually run Young Enterprise on mondays after school but for a coach full of young farmers I can sack it off...

Ha - well the ones I know are 15 and 19!

Hmph. Bit too young then. Wonder if they have any older brothers

[eeek]

After all your hard work getting Aero to fitten up and lose some weight he will probably lose marks now! I bet you a fatty wins .

My nice neighbour who is a farmer and has known me all my life looked at Hasty when I bought him and was speechless (he was so thin then!). Later, after Hasty had won his first few races, he confessed that he thought I'd made a terrible mistake. But he was looking at him from a meaty point of view and I was more interested in conformation and breeding.
