Should be easier to change the head gasket with row crops and a wide track width.

As a Londoner, I'd like to say, "Row crops? What the hell are you on about????"

You will notice that those wheels are very narrow, they are normally used for going between rows of crops such as potatoes where wider wheels would run the crop down. The brand of tractor in question is (inexplicably) very popular but also has a reputation for head gasket failures which the manufacturer refers to as "service items".

Do you think that I was born yesterday? That thing would never get down the rows of crops in my local Waitrose.

I remember many years ago, when I worked for a living, on my route to the office, there was a huge road marking just before a tight bend. "SLOW" it read. Or rather, it didn't. Instead, in huge white letters, was written the legend "SLOM". It lasted for years.

One of those in the paper this morning, South Yorks I think. Currently an argument between the Highways Agency and the council as to who is responsible for fixing it, if the paper is to be believed.

You would think so, but we're in an age where a local printing company thinks a good way to get extra work is to offer a "Stationary Design" service to local businesses.
