I was feeling pretty pleased with myself, having finished off the last dregs of the Christmas shopping today (and by bike too! How smug am I?) when the other half came back from the nature reserve with a big grin on his face having been allowed to play with drive their tractor all day. I can’t help but feel that nothing I have bought him is going to come close – my only hope now is to see if the forestry guys felling the forest up the road will let him have a go on their big green tree-eating machine. Something to bring a grin to the face of overgrown boys everywhere…

I recall the last time I tried to reverse a tractor with a boat trailer attached. And failed. I had to get a girl to do it for me. There’s no shame in that.
Ah well, at least playing with tractors is relatively inexpensive so long as you’re not required to buy him one for Christmas.
Personally, I couldn’t buy anything to please my husband more than that video he was watching on the Horten Flying Wing. This way they can have Christmas every day you see.
R::B – No, no shame in that *snigger*. No shame at all…
Kirsten – I’m not sure how I’d get it in his stocking. And now he’s spent half the evening watching various big machines doing things on you tube…
My wife got me a fantastic book for last Christmas, “The Eagle Book of Cutaways”, superb.
Sounds cool…
