You might have seen my recent film of the DISCO 1 turning over in Bala forest and I did get a few comments about winching techniques and safety. Some valid points about the numpties milling around too close to the action but I personally thought we did a good job. Obviously while it’s in that position all the fluids are running either out or into places you don’t want them and we got that back on 4 wheels in under 7 minutes. Considering the ditch it was in that’s not bad.
