| Description |
The team organising the Middlemarch Singles Ball has a problem - past events have been so successful that there are no single farmers left in the area. With all the tickets sold to women, the committee must attract some men - even if the only males available are from Auckland. Problem: how to train them to impersonate local farmers. |
