LOL, I think I am pretty safe there, his main interest is in finding and
doing up old tractors.

I had someone who helped me in my last garden (before I married Ray) and his
grandson did just the same as a hobby. He used to drive one of those
wonderful old tractors with a 'stove pipe' exhaust around the village and it
was a really fine old workhorse and a thing of beauty and interest.
