Apologies for link to DailyMail...

72 and still working on a rig, kudos to this lady. However, who told her to put her Hard Hat on like that...!!?!?!

Although it is a clear indicator that people loose their marbles as they get older. She used to know how to wear a safety helmet... now look at her!

I'm amazed that their press officer let that pic of her out looking like that. Who knew that hard hats were difficult to put on! I'd love to see what she'd do with the over the ear type hearing protection!
So when the whole world is safe..............what are we going to do then?
