Farm Quickie

EXT. DAY. FARM.

TWO FARMERS ARE TALKING AT A HEDGE DIVIDING THEIR TWO FARMS

FARMER 1: Oi still haven't recovered from that bleedin' Foot and Mouth.

FARMER 2: Tell me about it, oi've started to diversify.

FARMER 1: Are ye going into that organic nonsense? Oi'm sick and tired of hearing about that.

FARMER 2: Nah, nah, nah (nods head towards corner of field).

CAMERA PANS TO REVEAL AN OPEN BARN. A FARM HAND IS ABOUT TO SHEAR A LONG HAIRED, BEARDED MAN ON HIS LAP OUTSIDE THE BARN. A QUEUE OF SIMILAR MEN AWAIT SHEARING.

ENDS.

I like clever, but you'd need to do a follow up I reckon.

Oh great; someone else taking the piss out of the Yeovil Hippie Shaving Festival.

So you liked it then? :)

I liked this one too.
Good ol' Nigels quickies.

Yeah, liked it, a very surreal image. As sootyj said, it needs a follow up. The diversification getting more and more bizarre.

I live in the West Country, believe me some of the farms have diversified in some very strange directions.

Well they do call these new commercial care homes, Granny Farms.

If the money runs out, what goes in the sausages.....

Never heard them called that! I’ve got this odd image of OAPs lined up like battery hens, unable to lay their zimmers on the ground! Just a handful of humbugs thrown in every day, just to keep them happy. Jamie Oliver and Hugh F.W. leading a campaign to return them into the wild.

Tssk who could forget Carter USM's seminal 1991 hit,

Granny Farming in the UK

Carter if they could play, sing, and weren't so ugly would have been the greatest pop band of all time.

Nice visual sketch Nigel

Stickin out son!

Thanks for comments folks

My only crit would be that thar dialogue don't rightly fit with yokel speak, loike.
