Evening all

Had a good day even though I had several incidents

Great to meet Carl, Anna and Phil and also Rich and Claire who I've met before.

Brought my 2 girls along again and they enjoyed most of it apart from the BIG bumps and some of my driving

Just been going through the vid's I took, will post them when I figure out how to edit them

First time for all of us at this site and it was very very muddy, loads of Green Oval machines there and the 2CV turned up as well sporting its new oraange paint job

We were probably outnumbered 15 to 1 but we all did well only getting stuck when beached including Rich on AT's and std suspension. Always amazes me how well that old truck of yours goes even on AT's

Most of the other machinery there was running 33's or bigger which made life interesting for those of us on 31's especially later on in the day when the ground was well churned up .

Managed to prang the Paj 3 times, front corner was the worst and on the way home had total brake failure, pedal to the floor while trying to stop at a roundabout, managed not to get hit and finished the journey home using the handbrake

Vids to follow

Yeah and the cheeky git said 'you wanna buy a proper 4x4' like to see him try it on AT's

Rich went places today that LR's were getting stuck

[Annamarie Oktober]

[Red Oktober]

[yaki]

They were too busy playing on their Nintendo's to notice thankfully

Not quite m8, was back in Pontypool aroung 17:15, by the time I picked up the missus a take away was home just after 17:45.

First job I had to do when I got home (after using the loo ) was to read through the wifes final degree assingment (and no I can't spell ), all 10,000 words of it so only now getting online

Rich went places today that LR's were getting stuck

yep he was a little cheeky over that

it was a bit fun going around some of those bits at the end not bad for being on worn out AT's and i came away from there with minimal damage
Claire will post some piccy's later of most of the times i got stuck

thanks all that give me a pull out

anyway here are a few piccy's that i took i will add a vid or two later or tomorrow

Yep i was the first one to get stuck after 5 Min's of arriving on site






some of the rut's




































Thats about all the piccy's that i took Claire will add hers soon

[Red Oktober]

ooooooooo ...love that last piccy Rich

[yaki]

great piccies guys, looks like you had a good time.

Chris, no brakes at the roundabout????? Squeaky bum time!!!!!

Just a bit

Good job I was taking it fairly easy TBH brakes were not much good after all that mud

Can't find the CD that came with my camcorder so waiting for a software download to finish so I can edit what I have and get it posted. Camcorder is a JVC and uses a non standard recording format apparently

Had a look through and there is some useable footage
