Contentment !

We've cut our holiday in Somerset short, due to bad weather and a terrible weekend forecast. On a previous dry day, we walked into Glastonbury, over the fields and down aptly named " Paradise Lane ". We came across this lovely old farmer, who'd managed to turn his tractor and stock trailer around in the lane, after unloading a cow and shutting the gate, before it could escape ! I think that he'd probably done it a few hundred times, before !
  When I asked him for a photo, he straightened his imaginary tie and wriggled his cap about. He seemed as old as the hills that he farmed on and was one of the most contented and happy people that I've ever met.
It must be the air and slow way of life down there !
  The tractor is a David Brown 25D and was registered on 11th June, 1958. It's taxed, as well !
