Re: Sheep?
There's your problem. You don't want to hard boil it at all - long, slow cooking is the answer for your old sheepy friend.

Re: Sheep?
Well spotted!
The original front tires, 30 years old, gave out after this photo was taken and I have new ones now. The wear was caused [I think] by contact with the front loader arms.
The front loader wasn't made for this tractor and doesn't really fit properly.
My yard is 3 acres, which I keep mowed as a semi-lawn area. I have 7 more acres that I cut with the same machine once or twice a year.
I bought the tractor in Beja, and the cutting deck from ebay.UK, and had it shipped to me.
Ok, I'm a machine freak.
The tractor cuts the lawn and the hedge, carries heavy things around, pulls out trees, digs holes and trenches, is a 3 meter high work scaffold, transplants small trees, lays subsurface irrigation lines, and more.
Sometimes, I even plow with it.
If you have land, I recommend having your own tractor.
