Just been down the beach and pulled a transit pick up out of some stones, rear axle was buried!

Did nearly pull my towbar off so now the mount thingy is twisted and needs replacing (fella has said he will pay out for any costs resulting in it!)

Good thing was 2 new nissan pick ups failed miserably to pull him out :D

hmmm,
methinks you need to get some waffle boards first though, and they don't cost as much.
and also something to dig the stones out instead of me having to use me hands rofl
And no, I don't mean you can get a bucket and spade.  :P
