Sounds about par for the course with a Farmers' Market.

Re: No Sprout About It
During a half term we had some corporate bankers doing some volunteer work for half a day at the school, mostly clearing weeds and brambles from an abandoned flower bed. They were junior trainees that needed to complete some volunteer work for a tick box exercise in order to advance in their careers.
There was some wooden fencing attached to a wall that needed to be dismantled and disposed of, I asked one of the bankers that was just standing around watching to get a screwdriver from the toolbox and start unscrewing the fencing. He gave me a blank look, so I handed him a screwdriver, the blank look continued and he said, I’ve never used a screwdriver before how does it work?
I can assure you although the above sounds utterly ridiculous it is true… -Shock.png-
