Some of the Queenslanders might enjoy this.

I reckon the traffic jam on KSD was just a small sample of the populace wanting to get to the Women's Hospital, to welcome Incisor into the world. Or maybe they were trying to get a glimpse of the new Queen aboard Britannia.
Should this be in "jokes"?

Also, what's with the angle iron at the rear? Would it be a PTO platform? I've seen a few SIs over the years with various PTO equipment attached, but don't recall seeing that mounting, but then again it would probably have been hidden.
The angle iron is the basic drawbar fitted by the factory. There are other types of drawbar attachments, such as a double "mouth" type that takes a matching pin, that bolt on to it.
Many trailing agricultural implements of the time also had a simple "mouth" type drawbar that just attached to the angle iron with a simple steel pin.
The PTO is entirely separate and mounts using four long bolts through the four holes in the rear crossmember, the drive shaft passing through the large hole adjacent to the mounting holes.
If it is just a PTO, then there is a triangular shaped cover that mounts on the same bolts, as they are extended long enough and threaded to hold it.
If a belt pulley is required, the cover is removed, and the pulley assembly has a female splined inlet drive that fits over the matching splined PTO shaft and a flange secured by the same long mounting bolts.
My Series 1 has the PTO, but not a belt pulley, along with a matching engine governor and hand throttle. It also has a completely rebuilt bollard winch.
It has a brand new imported canvas tilt, and a set of new seats, also imported, after a full nut and bolt restoration. While it is probably possible to spend upwards of $100k, especially using professional restorers, you can have mine right now for $100k and still have enough left over to paint it whatever colour you like!

So "come in spinner" is it? There's the joke I was missing.
Freaky.. Watch the "head". Worse than a mechanical owl.
