Yesterday, while grabbing some lunch  between the arrival of loads of wheat at the store, I let my four-year-old granddaughter use her nail varnish set on me! Not being a regular user of such things, it was only later that I realised that I was stuck with painted nails for the rest of the day. Going over to see the contractors who were baling straw, I had forgotten this as I pointed out the fields…

“Did you see the farmer’s painted nails?
Never seen that while baling bales!
My sense of amazement never fails,
must be something in the water!”

“He doesn’t belong with alpha males,
looks are about minor details,
I hear that he writes daily tales,
pity his poor granddaughter!”

Thanks to the Big-Bale crew for not noticing, although it was probably enough to keep you amused for weeks! Last night I discovered the joys of nail varnish remover!
