Amended Caption:

Mystery bairn driving tractor.

[Hoho! I should have added a hyphen perhaps - 'Mystery tractor-driving bairn' - Steven]

Anyone who can kick-off a letter to The Orcadian Postbag [today] with a 58-word sentence containing just one grammatical error can cheerfully ignore the snide nitpickings of the anonymice.
I too happen to be working on a sentence with eight more words than years in my age (83). If I live to complete this ambitious undertaking I shall submit it to OIL in a show of solidarity with you Steven.
Meanwhile, keep up the good work!

[Cheers! Steven]

It is Ann o' Cleat. Now lives in Westray.

Given the size of the tractor and the size of the bairn, it is quite feasible that the tractor would be the driving force!!! I thought it was Deirdre, Colin. Cheers, Freda.
