What a great way to spend a day
« on: July 18, 2007, 21:51:52 »
Today I had a wonderful day. Weather was decent, so off I went with the wife, daughter, daughter's 'chap' and the nephew to the local 'pay and play' site.
Lots of mud, cars that were performing well and a BBQ on site. Most excellent!
Simplicity is best! :D  :D  :D

If want to walk it walk it, if you want to ride it ride it just leave me alone to drive it!

Float???? My car does not float, sir! It is all equipped for wading and stuff! Apart from the door seals. I managed to bring home a few pints of minging H2O, which I left outside my neighbours house along with a few pounds of finest Hampshire clay and chalk! That'll teach 'em to winge about the fence! :wink:
This photo was taken just before I found the deep bit. This was the point where I thought a periscope might be a good idea.

Brick Kiln Farm, at Alton. A nice place, lots of holes, mud, tight tracks and some quite challenging bits.

Indeed. As for the numbers, two cars namely my Disco and nephew's 90, that he just had to test out now that it has it's 2"lift kit fitted along with new A/T tyres.
You missed a good day out, Rob. It was a shame you couldn't make it. We even managed to perfect the art of popping a coil spring back into place with a spade, a sledge hammer and a Hi Lift. We perfected it as we had to do it 3 times! :roll:

Isn't that the place used in a 4x4 is born?

I bet he didn't have to clear 3 Astra wheels and a shed load of logs out first though! It is a good site with a serious big amount of potential, but I get the feeling some of the local 'Chavalry' get in there and think it is great fun to dump their crud in the watery bits.
Saying that, it was better to remove the wheels without them still being attached to the Astra. :roll:
