Dad admitted to me once that when Grandad bought their first tractor in the late 1920s, it was the greatest day of his life up till then! Dad was a "machinery" man all his days, and also admitted that he hated dealing with the horses. Dad's notes below - and the amount of photos featuring it - speak volumes on how much this young man was impressed by this wonder of modern engineering!
