Big hole at 'The Swamp'
« on: October 13, 2007, 06:41:04 PM »
Doh!

 doh: Just managed to get not one, but two bloody cars stuck in a hole I've just dug at 'The Swamp.
Kept digging like a bloody ferret, thinking, I'll just dig a bit deeper to make it more of a challenge.
I succeeded. ::)

When your in a deep hole and covered in shit, STOP DIGGIN'.

Wise words indeed.  Even wiser ~ stop digging just before the hole is too deep.

Is there a mathmatical equation to werk out when you've reached the point of needing to stop.
On reflection a 4' trough was p'raps being a tad over ambitious.

Wonder i didn't snap the bloody suspension tbh.  eeek:

I am officially barking now imo. noooo:

Personally I've always found that when the shit reaches my chin it is time to stop.


And now I'm off to watch the Rugby.

Yea, i'm glad too. Don't like crying in front of an audience. sad32:

Fortunately, GROWLER jnr hitched up and between us we managed to drag the Landy out with the accompanying smell of burning clutch, then i promptly turned the tow car around and drove straight back into said hole. evil:

NOT one of my brightest moments, and the sky matched my mood. Nearly black. evil:

I think I know where I went wrong on the 'construction' side of things, and will go back tomorrow to ammend the layout.

You might get a phone call for further help. whistle:

P'raps DS would care to drive up from his turnip farm with one of his large machines to help out? rubschin:

So - we buggered off in the "Nick" of time eh?

Phew,

I reckon yous wuz planning on burying me next time   scared2:

Seriously, We had a really pleasant afters there and I was pleased to meet such a nice bloke (and his gear)  cloud9:

We'll be BACK!


In Koper. some years back I remember it was so bloody muddy that we had about thirty-odd artics all chained together to drag that last few stuck motors out of that swamp to the road which was on the other side of the field.  And we were all supposed to have been on a boat to Tartous inside the hour!

Great fun it was too, most of us woke up passing Greece with enormous headaches after dreaming of mud whilst pissed.
