Our tractor caught fire while B was on it. Mister he man jumped off the seat, opened the hood and started a fire brigade. The small flames were quickly snuffed. Thank goodness. Something he had done prior to jury rig gave way and baby kabluy.
Me “were you scared?”
B “nope … we’ll sort of excited … the battery isn’t far from the fuel tank”
Me “thank goodness you weren’t hurt. That would’ve been bad”
B “just glad my tractor is ok. ”
Me “you’re more important than the tractor”
B shakes his head. Mumbled something about diesel burns differently. Grumbling about losing time. Now $50 later, the tractor has a new battery and he’s out there shredding. Secretly he’s in hog heaven.
As always more to come.
So glad no one was hurt π

He’s right. Diesel isn’t readily flammable. You can throw a match into a bucket of diesel and it will just go out.

π thank goodness he is ok π Funny when it is the menfolk they arenβt that scared, but if that had been you on the tractor, he would have been scared, or at least my hubby is that way π I always tell him itβs because he is scared no one will be here to cook, clean, and do the laundry π π
