My boss, David, took this picture at the Doe Show a couple of weeks ago.

Here's what it would set you back (minus a few discounts etc!)

Quite a saving on the £185,000 list price! And fairly cheap hp at that!

I thought I was a little odd in dreaming of tractors. But, according to an interview in next month's girly Elle magazine, actress Liv Tyler's future vision involves farming, complete with bits of kit.

"Before I die I want to live on a farm with chickens, a vegetable garden and a John Deere tractor," Tyler said in the interview.

It's not unusual for Hollywood stars to fall in love with what they deem as the 'simple life'. Robert Redford and Clint Eastwood are well known ranch owners, too.

It hasn't turned out to be all that simple for all, though. Just last week, hit TV drama 24 star Kiefer Sutherland was reported to have lost nearly $1m after fauling faul of a Mexican cattle fraud (read the full story in the Independent, here) on his ranch in Montana. 

I think I will stick to reporting. Far simpler (and I don't have the attributes to become an actress - despite what my Mum might say).
