It was awful. He started floating away and then started sinking.

My favourite pic of Gary was when the Jeep was pulled out of the "pond" and due to the angle it was at there were kids toys floating in the back window.

It was awful experience for them all.

Worth it for the MudClub Periscope award though.

Mine were, Never done a greenlane yet where I thought I would get stuck (At least not due to terrain).

Took us 3 hours to cut up a fallen tree by hand and move it out the way once...

Also been "Stuck" sorting a Rangie where his rear Axle came adrift one side too, that took several hours aswell.

Found this one.  Its actaully at Sibertoft

I organised a weekender up there and at night the fog came down quick.  I drove over to the entrance all day showing people the way to the camp site (must of driven it 10 to 15 times) but in a moment of stupidity....drive
....I was looking in my rear view mirror when the wheels just seem to loose grip!

I'd driven over a 5 foot long log marking the road  :oops:  :oops:  :oops:  Had to use two waffles and a 101 with a winch to get me off it.

They ripped it out of me all weekend  :oops:  :oops:  :oops:  :oops:  :oops:  :oops:  :oops:
