I saw that and wondered if it was any of us!

Well done and I hope you enjoyed every minute of it...

Incidently.... it doesn't actually mention that you got anyone out... were there infact any 2wd motorists to be rescued...?    :angel: :P :lol:

On the positive publicity side- if any of us make a rescue, take a snap or two and send the story to the local paper. And why not- it all helps to counter the bad press papers seem quite willing to print.

If you haven't already done so, consider joining your local 4x4 Response group. In the event of my fishing anyone out I'd feel I had to get a few photos for the Powys website!
