Meet UK’s Sexiest Female Farmer
By ANISaturday, February 13, 2010
LONDON - A blonde has been named Britain’s sexiest female farmer.
Sheep farmer Anna Simpson, 25, ploughed down the competition to prove farming is not just about men, muck and wellies.
She beat more than 300 hopefuls to become the new face of farming in a competition run by Farmer’s Weekly magazine.
Simpson, from North Yorkshire, spends her days training sheepdogs, driving tractors and helping with lambing.
But the bubbly blonde admits she loves getting dolled up for a night out and swapping her wellies and waterproofs for mini skirts and make-up.
“A stereotypical farmer is a man in his 60s who wears wellies all day. But I wanted to show farmers can also be young women who want to get stuck in but also enjoy a night out,” the Daily Express quoted her as saying.
Meanwhile, Pete Mortimore, from Devon, was voted Britain’s sexiest male farmer.
Both winners will be given a pair of wellies and 250 pounds.
Tim Relf, of Farmer’s Weekly, said: “With some youngsters reluctant to pursue careers in agriculture, we wanted to show it’s as much of a fun and sexy business as any other.” (ANI)
