i never be littled anyone at all Pointer please my read post and PM if you find something I have said . I have only mentioned the standard at events in NZ be it this or any other and the fact I do not like poly fluff -do PM and correct if you find something please
And yes I agree 100 percent with your last statement !!!!!
You referred to everyone as dressed like 'labourers' and 'ditch diggers', please check your own posts before you deny it. Can you tell me why they dress like that?
Answer me this Pointer do you think there should no standards at all at a sporting events Pointer when competing ?
Stop avoiding the question. Why are they dressed like rural NZers and outdoorsmen/women?
People turning up at events as that --no particular event or people -I did not identify any body at all -some chose to take that on themselves --a very big difference and that I stand by .I remeber an event I went to with a guy in poly fluff and stubbies lying down to shoot with the nags showing hahah a good exampleQuote:

answered already Pointer and properly .I would go past that answer tho and say social pressure probably has something to do with how people dress also now and what is pushed by manufacturers .I will give you an example I had this season meeting a guy on the road putting breaks on and apologizing for how he was dressed as he was going to Equine -I laughed and opened my door and said I wear them as a standard .Quote:

would you think the same for the horse Hunt EESBEES a beautiful tradition . To think differently as I do can be very polarizing but I believe upping standards is a good thing not a bad thing -nothing other than thatQuote:

And then come on a public forum and ask for a more practical alternative as tweed is too hot? Maybe ask the ditch diggers, they know what is practical and functional
cotton , light wool fabric , moleskin
haha Pointer I dont expect everybody to wear Tweed thats my bent there are many other different smart outfits one can wear --plenty
Enjoy that?Quote:
