@msharp it is an MF tractor, not sure model. Had a slasher on the back. 4 gears. The JD ride on mower was a hoot - can turn on a dime.
My last afternoon on the farm was spent mowing the house paddock with Wil. Next time I'll give the tractor a whirl.

@chrissharkey now in LAX awaiting a delayed flight to Sydney. Second night it has been delayed, hopefully it doesn't turn back this time.
@chrissharkey "not particularly well" would be quite an understatement. Looking forward to arriving at mums and getting a cup of tea!
Can safely declare at this point that at every opportunity to fuck up today @united managed to deliver. Flight to Syd delayed an hour. Argh!
And the McDoons are ready to take flight to SYD again later today. Thanks for getting us on next available @united!
@united c'mon, can't get help on the phone, can't get help at the desk where you told us to go and now just a huge line at customer service.
@united out are not making any friends this morning. Poor directions in SFO for UA863 passengers and very very very very slow processing.
Make that 1302 days in San Francisco. @united flight UA863 turned back with engine troubles. We can see you want us to stay SF, thank you!
Has anyone else seen this in GMail? "Send money for free with your debit card" Quite surprised.

Deeply transparent, open, collaborative, networked, rich relationships with others. Be clear about values. @johndoerr
@TheZombie222 know anyone doing similar in Australia? Alternatively, would you take an '84 BMW 528i as a donor for the apocalypse package?
Now, if everyone has @periscopeco and knows how to use it we'll have a lot more content and (hopefully) people who think before they act.
@versionone fascinating that 56% of respondents are using Scrum - from the guide!? Crazy. Would expect to see a lot more hybrid teams.

@apelosi long story short; too bloody hard to get anything organised with new systems and no one willing to share their customer story.
@msharp well I wondered if it was for track switching. Or to raise the engine. As for bat cave... This is Europe, so EU superheroes?
Trains. Old. Electric. Zurich. Can anyone tell me what these stands/shoes/jacks are next to the tracks?
