Seeing as I am a bit laid up at the mo , a friend (a farmer ) asked if I wouldnt mind driving his ( B F ) tractor to his brothers farm . Anything with a motor and the bigger the better
, so I was in . My heart sank when I saw the 12 ton roller attached to the back of it as I knew this meant a tediously slow trip on sealed road ( otherwise the roller starts to bounce a bit and wont be round anymore ) The boring trip commences , You couldnt begin to imagine the elation , the glee I felt as I realised the lump ahead on the road was a dead possum
................. 12 ton roller ................ in the interest of sience ( uh huh )............AW come on Guys , who wouldnt ?. Good job I shut the back window of the cab

Are you kiddig ?
I nearly fried the clutch going backwards and forwards
, almost ran out of diesel
, was late for tea
,( all the farm kids were doing the mexican wave
) blocked off the whole road when I rolled it sideways
........... yeah , I was there for a while .
.Eventually the friggin thing stuck to the roller so I decided enough was enough ( getting dark
) and headed for home , it then launched itself off the top of the roller and splattered against the rear window of the cab and dropped down on to the PTO housing
( slightly embellished . Hamish
)

Tenderize, yeah that's the right word to describe it! Then you wrap it up in foil and throw it on the exhaust manifold until medium rare...
Don't laugh, folks really do this!
