I'm still in the balance at present prob about 50/50. Still a wee bit of stuff to do and no time to do it, if its just the basics that I'm expecting should be able to make it, if there are any complications I may not.

If you see me there in time I made it, if not I didn't!

Don't wait for me.

Sorry for the late reply, our other appointment got canned, so we will be there, barring me killing the truck tomorrow, in the back of the Lees valley, while I'm hunting. :roll:

Should be OK though.

Well myself and Red Devil(jono) went to the ashley today for a quick play and receee since he cant come tomorrow, the first crossing we came to and I almost got stuck :shock:

man it is so soft :roll:

carried on up the river found a track through the trees then found a 3 meter virtical drop with my wheels in the air :shock:

so jono had to winch me cause I was full belleyed and he had just broke a CV, head for a road to remove the outer hub and driveshaft so Jono could get home without it binding up, so off he heads and I head back to the river to wash the kids down as they had got dirty playing while Jono and myself fixed his truck, and found 5 trucks in a biggggggg mud patch 2xprados 1xsurf 1xdble cab and what I think was an old narvara all stuck ( 2 with mud over there tyres :lol:

) I snatched the two closest to the shore, then had to use my long rope cause one had ploud a big mound in front of him (he came out backwards :wink:

) and winched the other two out :roll:

......... they were all on road tyres and had no recovery equipment so I suggested they look at this site if they want to get into 4wding and kit there trucks out right :twisted:

then they headed out and I took the kids for a swim cause they were playing in the mud when I was recovering these guys
