I haven’t written for a while now mainly because the sprint season has started and fitting work around training can be a struggle. Luckily I like my design work unlike my sister who has endless delivering all over the country side and then there is dealing with the meat for the farm shop. Actually not long a go a customer asked my sister for some ribs, Dad was out and as there were wasn't any prepared by the in-house butcher, so Antonia thought she would use her initiative and cut the ribs from the cow she knew was hanging in the chiller.
From all our weight training squatting a large amount isn’t usually a problem but when it’s a full grown cow on your shoulder it’s another story (btw I would never do something like this!) So Antonia using all her will power gets this cow into the cutting room and attempts to saw the ribs out. If you can imagine sawing through bone then you will realise how hard it is. So after half an hour of sweating and sawing away decided this just wasn’t going to happen and went out to tell the customer in fact there were no ribs available and would she prefer a chicken? The woman just looked at her stunned and left. Then Ant looked down at her apron to see that she looked like she had just massacred something!
Ant managed to put the cow back but it looked as though a couple of alsations had been at it. She was so worried what dad would say that she didn’t tell him and that was the day before we left for Australia. Dad still hasn’t said anything to her and actually he offered her the business yesterday, so I’m pretty sure he doesn’t know she had anything to do with it!
