I would love to see that.

I used to take part in aid convoys to Kosovo and areas around Chernobyl and my trucks call sign was the "Flying Furguson". On an earlier convoy we pulled in to a village and were in the middle of distributing aid when there was suddenly a load of fuss from the hill above us. Barrelling down the hill was a Furguson and trailer with nobody driving it and a lot of people chasing it. It landed between my truck and the truck behind, ripping my tail lift off in the process. After a lot of straining and groaning we managed to get the tractor and trailer back on its wheels. It still drove perfectly.

From then on we were simply known as the "Flying Furgusons" on the CB.

Had a kind of a soft spot for Furgusons ever since and always look out for them at local transport and country fairs.

I think I want a tractor now. I have no idea what I would do with it, but I know I want one.
