Daydreamer, here is a thought, years ago when I was a Boy Scout (about 16) my younger brother and I were on a troop campout. For some reason he broke his retainer wire. The remains were sticking into the back of his tounge.
The next morning after breakfast he came over to beg for something to correct it. Thinking in my 16 year old mind I handed him my file for the axe. Went over to his tent and started filing the wire in the back of his mouth.
Now get this it is winter and we are in the little 1970s shorts and long socks. He is kneeling there facing his tent adn you can see the file going in and out of his mouth.
So the Patrol Leader (one of my best friends) and I are sitting there when the Scoutmaster yells "Eldredge, Big G---n (me) get your a$$ over here.
Thinking we had been caught for something, and knowing the possibilities were pretty much endless we raced to the leader's campsite in fear.
The scoutmaster looked at us and said,'WHAT THE HE!! did you feed those kids this morning???'
In shock we answered,"Um pancackes and bacon, we made it and it was pretty good."
Drawing up to his full 6'2" he stared down at us,"Well I don't know what you fed them or had in it but Little G---n (my brother) is over there right now filing his teeth."
We glance over and there is this little scout in his shorts and blue green jacket intently filing away at the wire in his mouth.

Been years since I went to England. Had a proper English picnic outing while I was there. Don't remember too much, I was just a kid.

Nothing like a little farming. Does it involve driving a big tractor? I plowed two quarter-sections once in a big John Deere.
