I would like to say a BIG BIG thankyou to Neil for rescueing me out at Escot last night and to Simon for getting me in touch with him. Also to all you lovely people on here with your suggestions and offers of help.....what a great club!! :P


Here's the pics we took of the resue :party:



Neil turned up with his lovely wife about 5 mins after we'd got there

Image

Had a look at the car and where the towing eye was...got the tow rope out and cracked straight on with it

Image

Image

Steve got in the Probe and I was getting a little nervous as I saw them appoaching the boggy bit :oh yer:

Image

And hey ho she was through and into the second field.....worse bit over with

Image

We swopped over and I got into the Probe and Steve got the taxi with Tyrone in the boot taking pics :lol: :lol: :lol:

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

At last we made it to the road :well done:

Image

Phew finally we were out of that horrible boggy field ( Which I never want to see again for the rest of my life :twisted: :lol: )

Image

Image

Image

And on our way home

Image

Just one set of lights to go

Image

And she's back home where she belongs :party: :party: :party:

Image

Image


I think she needs a bit of a wash now :dirty w/end:

Thought you may like to see these too of what it was like on the Monday of last week :roll:

This one too.....click the car park ones

http://efestivals.co.uk/festivals/beaut ... show.shtml

As you can see by the pics it's dried out a lot....thought she may have been stuck out there untill next summer ( That's if we ever get one :? )


We also have a Frontera which is failed the MOT on this and that so we'll probably be along soon to ask for advice and maybe parts.....so looks like I'm here to stay :twisted: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Dont know Carl but prob cos of the body kit etc and being afraid of trashing it.

We did pop out there last night to try and find ya but didnt know where exactly it was to so just drove upto the main house and around to the left but looking at the pics it was around to the right of the house!!! typical.
Ah well atleast its all been recovered etc which is the main thing.
Well done Neil.
