right,where to start.....
after the wknd of winning ways & repairing the 90 this afternoon at work i decided to go for a little play in a disused sand quarry bout 2 miles away from where i work,ive been in once before in the day light & scouted it out & been in before at night but with my selection of ilumination it was fine,
in the quarry there is 3 pools,top & bottom are weedy & look quite deep,the centre pool is clear enouigh to see the bottom & about the bottom of the door deep,so did a complete lap of the quarry tonight to see the whole site & after driving in & out the centre pool for a bit decided to venture round the bottom pool which has an island in the middle,was gonna dip the front in but looked really deep so didnt bother,as i was driving round the edge i found a bit that came inland so decided to drive in acroos the water which was 1 1/2 90 lenghts long,as i drove in didnt have quite enough motion in action so as it went down & i tried to speed up it just started to spin the wheels,at this point i had just stopped & was foning my boss as the water was pouring in to the footwell to get him to come up with his 90 to pull me out,when i told him all i could hear was him & the other mechanics roaring with laughter,
as i was waiting decided to jiggle the motor to see if it would move,did it heck,just went down further so the water was up the the sidelight at the front :shock: as i was wearing trainers decided to just go for it & jump in so i could reach the pedals & the water was soooooo cold,so after a long 10 min wait my boss turns up & out jumps all the mechanics from work,a quick tug backwards & i was free,just had to change my shoes & get sorted out so i could go home,got home & the first thing my folks said was "wher you been,your teas in the oven" still not told them what really happened :roll:
i do have some pics but waiting for them to come through from an email of my mobby
