Dad: "Just ran myself over with the tractor, brb having a shower"

This made me laugh more than the thought of your Dad running himself over.

That's pretty silly!

Is working/owning a farm as fun as I imagine it to be (and obviously massively hard work)?

How?

Something about a gasket blowing, went to get water to top it back up. Left it to cool for a while. 1 leg on 1 leg off, started it and off the tractor goes, taking itself for a walk. (and running my dad over)

Naughty tractor xD

Tractor is fine now though

Hard work and fun. I have broken a few bones finding new ways to amuse myself with working quad bikes and other materials lying around the farm when I was younger.

Thank you kind sir.

To OP, get back out and cut that silage.

My pal ran on over my foot in one of his fields years back with his forklift, it hurt a lot. Thank god the soil was soft cause it would have broke my bones if it had been hard.

We want pics of dad and said tractor.

Fail

.

Uncle keeps one of his tractors at the top of one of the slopes, so one day I asked him why. "Battery died so I took it out and just rely on always bump starting it down the hill".
