@Aiden_C7 What a miserable person to do that to someone, as I'd say to my 3 year old nephew.... use your words? A polite conversation would have sufficed 🤦♀️

Im really disappointed to see a farmer doing this, to what looks like a solo-cyclist on a trip. The poor fella was more than likely going to pack up and adhered to the leave no trace principles when he was done.

@m_herbert Married on the farm with cows in the background and reception at the local town hall with local vendors, the whole wedding was much cheaper than if we had used a commercial venue, also having no wedding party is a good cost saving! x.com/SHendriks_PhD/…

Challenge sexism. Choose equality.
