Not all princesses are centrefold material

[ucci]

Hello all.
Sorry. Nothing great from me compared to everyone else's marvellous posts. Just wanted to make a point and clear up a misconception.

Roo pics always show these magnificent beasts striking handsome propaganda poses for an ' ooh , aah ,' effect in the eye of the viewer. Take the #1 below taken here at home recently. Big strapping male, standing well over 6 ft, heavily muscled as if having made too many trips to the steroid cookie jar. Ready to stand his ground and take on all comers. Have quite a few this size here at home around the paddocks and with whom we don't mess. They have been known to get a bit grumpy.

But it ain't all like that. We were working in the yard after a spot of rain. And we noticed at the gate, only a few metres away, this rather sad, forlorn, pathetic excuse of roo-manity. Just sitting there watching us. It was very wet, bedraggled and looking rather lost and in need of some TLC. Definitely 'the runt of the litter,' as they say.

Thanks for taking the time to view this post.

If roos could read centre-fold magazines I'm sure the first would be studiously read

Nice set.

Is that blood on the hands of Mr or Mrs Roo? How do you tell if it is a male or female? Babe looks like s/he is going to be a cutie when he grows up...

It looks like a family of three in the first picture. The one in the second is lonely and suffers from colour prejudice - obviously not accepted by the others.

#2 looks so sad.....
