<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His bedroom was colourfully decorated <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With tractors red blue and green <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Billy vowed to work on a farm when he matured <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Which he did and could be often be seen <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Driving tractors around the family farm <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then it happened <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Billy had an accident <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When his tractor rolled into a ditch <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And trapped him underneath <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Breaking both of his legs and an arm <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He was in hospital for some weeks<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And when discharged <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Found that one leg was longer than the other <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This ended his farming career <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His sweetheart left him <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And he began to hate tractors <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Billy started to drink hoping to find love <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And one day met a lass named Anne <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In The Three Tractors <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They agreed to date <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But she disliked the smoky atmosphere <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of the only pub in the village <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But he had no choice <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So they endured the rotten air <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That was until Anne asked to leave <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As she was asthmatic<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Billy then stood up and amazingly <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sucked all the foul smoke into his lungs <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He released it outside in the beer garden <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anne could not believe what she had seen <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And asked him how he did it <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Billy smiled and told his girlfriend <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That he was an extractor fan <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that the task was quite simple <br><br><br>Frozen Cows <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Farmer Jones found his cows <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Frozen solid in the field one morning <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It had been the worse winter in memory <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And if his cows died then it would be a disaster<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So he rang the local vet who gave him a phone number <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The farmer rang the number and it was answered by a girl <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mum will be with you within the hour  Farmer Jones <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so she was with only a towel and a hairdryer <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She began to work almost immediately <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rub rub rub with the bathroom towel <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And five minutes with the hairdryer <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cows began to recover one by one <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To the amazement of Farmer Jones <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And were soon their old selves <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He asked the woman what her name was <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So that he could spread the word <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The woman rather shyly replied <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thora Hird
