How old are you?

[18 stoner]

Youth is wasted on the young.

 

 

Oh yes! If only they knew😧

 

Think I'm 46😎. A few bits have been renewed and some fallen off, but my head's still telling me I'm 25.

Couldnt you have put a 50/55,then a 55+....

Does this make me the oldest swinger in the crown?

That makes two of us!

FFS you being serious Billhook ????

 

 

 

I am 45 and up ferret.

Normal farmworker test in Norfolk! Sort the men out from the boys.

Started with 16 stone sacks which were put on your back with a sack lift, but eight stone sacks were normal to be lifted off the ground.

I have a video somewhere of me doing ten "push-ups" from the shoulder with a four stone weight. Cannot do that anymore.

Not so much the actual weight but the bloody awkwardness of the thing which made it difficult.

In my Dads' day 2 and a quarter cwt was a standard sack of grain. That's 18 stone. Sacks were placed on your back to be carried up the granary steps...a test for any man!

used to carry 100cwt sacks of cement now 25kg put two up on shoulder the other day. heard of the old boys carrying 200cwt sacks f grain on back. think i be on ground if i tried it even when young

[Stephen Blair]

The old cement bags were knee wobblers for me and my 10 stone when I was 16.

I remember having to take 1 from Largs to Millport from Harcross, that was a ferry and a bus journey with a bag of cement and a fair bit of walking inbetween.

My boss probably just got me to do it for a laugh.
