It's very obviously a one-person tractor (do they even make a two-seater? I'm guessing no...) so I just stood there and said there was nowhere for me to sit. He told me to sit on his lap and steer. So I did. We spent the next 15 minutes zipping around the yard and field beside the house - we did not actually need the wood, it turned out.
I'm sending this off to Jeff Foxworthy....I can hear him now! Have you ever heard of a red-neck lap dance?
All I know is...if my W is sitting in my lap...somebody is gonna be a tad bit excited!
