 The lack of a bonnet, and the location of the front axle suggests cab over engine. The most obvious choice would be a Fordson 7V, or one of its cousins, the wheels seem right, but there isn’t much else to go on.

Is that seaweed used for fertiliser, or is it the feedstock for dulse soup?

 :king: I thought there was enough visible to get something from it. Voiceover talks about the seaweed being collected for general reasons, including as an ingredient of ice-cream manufacture.

 It's a widely-used thickening agent. Ever had laverbread?? It's delicious - almost as good as Marmite. Richard Burton called it "Welshman's caviar".

 I’ll eat most things, snails, winkles, oysters, clams, haggis etc, but laver bread has never been close to the top of my list.

Your comment reminds me to my tour guide in North Korea :D
Once she asked me, if it's true, that in Europe you eat moulded cheesse.
"Oh yes, every European people has own recepies. It can be expensive delicatessen. There is cheese with green, blue, red, white or grey mould."
She fought against an urge to gag an replied:
"How disgusting is that?! Before I would eat moulded cheese, I would eat again, as in out hunger years in the 90ies, grass and tree bark!"

P.S. Laver bread or chips isn't that bad. It's even quite unspectacular, tasting a bit fishy, a bit salty and a bit greasy.
It still have some of it in the kitchen board, a souvenier from Thailand.

 @ingo - I agree with your NK tour guide - mould cheeses are revolting. I'd prefer tree bark and grass.

And proper Welsh laverbread made in Wales by Welsh people is never greasy. Tinned shite made in Thailand and sold by Aldi is not true laverbread.

There is no Aldi in Thailand. But in Scotland - where they act nowadays in a very localpatriotic way. The renovated Scottish Aldi-store are overloaded with St.Andrews-crossed signs "Scottish Products". Check it the next time, when you are in Oban.

 I’ve just eaten an Aldi Chinese chicken curry. Madam returned from her afternoon outing saying she wasn’t hungry, and I couldn’t be bothered to cook anything real.
