The ladies they garden, the men they ... fish!

Well that little lady is my second attempt at making things to brighten up our gardening show. Neil the renter next door saw it and thought it fell short of what was desired, so made the fisherman.My first thought was '' it is really good but we are advertising a gardening show'' So I have come up with a cunning plan. I am going to put a label on the old lady saying, '' the women they garden/  les femmes faire le jardinage'' and another on the man saying '' and the men  fish / les hommes peche''
And you will all have the chance to come and laugh at them at the show.
Bringing things to exhibit, you come between 9.30am and 11.30 am and then they will be judged and doors will be opened to the public by the Mayor at 2pm. Presentation and auction of cakes or jams [ if people want to leave them] will be at 4pm. Terri Tippett is also bringing flowers and plants to decorate the salle and the salon which will also be for sale afterwards.
Judges on the day will be
Sylvie Gravier Jardin des Bastides
Jean Gros from the village an exceptionally good  gardener
Terri Tippett from Parisot who has a market garden
and the President of the show Jean Donies from Les Jardins du Quercy
Judging the art work will David and Joyce Clench and Mary Parkes
Judging the patchwork, needlework etc. we have Joan Crooks and Carmen Gomez
Judging articles made of  wood and or other materials will be Bernard Mages
Judging photography will be Gareth Brown
Judging cakes and jams etc. will be Glynis Howgego and Sieuwke de Graaff.
Judging the childrens entries will be Mary Parkes.
I am just checking the spelling of two judges names before inserting.
ps there is also a chance to bring things Friday evening between 4 and 6 pm
