Riddle: Explain how the tractor got there?
You are on an island in the middle of a lake. The lake is in a remote part of the country and there has never been a bridge connecting the island to the mainland.
Every day a tractor and wagon gives hay rides around the island. Puzzled as to how the tractor had gotten onto the island, you ask around and find out that the tractor was not transported to the island by boat or by air. Nor was it built on the island. Explain how the tractor got there? |

Is the tractor actually on the island or is it on the shore around the lake?

Having spent the first 18 years of my life in freezing Aberdeen Scotland - I know the answer to this.
