Thats not entirely fair. The last two times that I went up Worselys with ORE I broke stuff. Once pulling out Al's Nissan and the other pulling out Matts Toyota. What does that tell you? Landy all the way!! 8) :roll: 8)

So are we meeting at 6.45pm or 7.15pm?

Let's make it meet at 7.00pm Thursday the 21st and be on the hill at 7.10. Those that are late can call on PRS ch 19 or CB am 11 . We can have a play on the way up so late starters can catch up, you can walk up as fast as you can drive.
The weather report is not looking to good for thursday night and if it gets to wet the track get's very slippery, and I don't want to much carnage this close to Christmas.

NEVER WORRIED ABOUT IT BEFORE, WHY START NOW,

towed up worsleys

Oh Aaron, such a short memory. The landy broke itself trying to tow me, it never actually did. If you remember I reversed down, and we all turned around as several of the trucks broke that day.

That's cos the Terrano was so bellied out with bent sterring rods that it wouldn't move. As I recall the Landy had already driven through where you got stuck.

Have to see how your new toy performs. I haven't had a chance to tow it yet.

stuck

Post by PigFmr »

just to add to this getting stuck, i pulled out a v8 disco out of the ashley on sunday with my safari just to even things up a bit, he had been there a while water up to front seats and rear seats and he stuffed his engine, took the spark plugs out and it was like a water pump he was bogged down in the pea shingle,it gave the saf a good work out pulling him out as he could not run his engine,
