When competing in a cow pat throwing competition, is it etiquette to wear bright yellow marigold gloves?

We had one of those competitions at last years village fete, can't stand the damned stuff myself, so I got my man Cuthbertson to throw it for me. Cuthbertson failed miserably, so I told him, " Rather a poor show that, what?" The fellow muttered something about he could have done better wearing gloves, he even had the temerity to ask for the throwing competition entrance money back, damned impertinence if you ask me. Still, when I docked him a days wages, that took the smile off his face I can tell you.

no gloves allowed!!!
Reply:Personally I would wear pink ones or even better the long blue ones that come way up my arms. I don't care if the cow pats are nice and dry, I wouldn't stick my bare hands anywhere near them.
Reply:brown or black would suffice
Reply:I believe that formality is relaxed at these events and would suggest that the gloves can be yellow bur it may be that you look for a pink pair. If it is a Young Farmers do you need to keep the gloves on until you are safely home.
Reply:I think that is wonderful, it is hygienic anyway.
Reply:Depends on the level of competition - if you're trying out for the national team, then you MUST wear the proper attire ;);););)
