This Fordson Tractor (being auctioned just now on eBay.co.uk) is just what will be needed today for anyone parking to see the Loch Lomond Scottish Open Golf Championship. The weather is truly testing - wild winds, overnight torrential downpour - and, although slightly better at the moment, it looks as if there's more rain due anytime. The car parking for the match is going to be ... er, soft!
Mind you, the tractor featured needs a little more work before it's going to be fit to pull anything out of a bog.
I'm a farmer's daughter - and, although it's 30 years since our farm was sold, I get really nostalgic for the sight, sound and smell of a tractor at work. This shot of an old Fergusson in a farm yard is reminiscent of work at home when Dad would come in weary after a day's ploughing.The auction itself shows how not to sell on eBay - the seller has put a poor title on the auction, which will probably not be found if searching for Fergusson tractors, the description could be much better as well - so, at present, the tractor looks like a bargain to me. I hope he does well.
