Well folks here's the photo's for your ammusment. A good day was had by the four of us that went, even though the weather was a bit ugly. FrontyDan is trying to take Jellybabby's record for getting stuck!!!!!

Some more pics from an absolutely cracking day out

Dan was the first to get stuck





So in went Bobby to recover him





Then Bobby got stuck - and decided to re-inforce his bullbars with lots of nice mud





Then Dan decided to find another hole to show off his axles ... and got stuck







So Bobbly lent his weight to the problem ...





Then it was Mr Mucker's turn to get stuck



So had to be pulled back by Bobby





Then came my turn to get stuck ...









While Fuddy was pulling me out, we heard word that Dan had decided to see how much he could get his truck to lean before it went over ...









Dan being winched back by a landy marked the end of the serious incidents ...



then it was burger bar time!



The weather was a bit bleak, but the company more than made up for it. As said, shame there were only the four frontys there. Thanks to Bobby and Fuddy for letting me ride in the passenger seat on the couple of full runs we managed to get (I really really need to get my tyres sorted! )

People putting their names down and not turning up is a bit naughty to say the least, at least Angie had the decency to say beforehand that she couldnt make it.

Sorry, rant over

Hey i said i couldn't get as well well guted i didn't get cause it's a cracking little site and some cool pics and loads of water

[bobbinsjob]

Sorry John, wasnt pointing the finger at anyone in particular and just using Angie as an example of those who did notify someone.

Glad those of you who did go had a good time

As Bobby mentioned,sadly only 4 frontys attended amongst a terrior sj and a bunch of Solihull nutters but as Jay said,A great time with lots of banter Was great to meet Alchemist in person(aka Mr Linux!) as well meeting up again with the stokies It was pretty cold & wet as well as the water levels at the site being a lot higher than when we had the first p&p here.As a result,there were plenty vehicles getting stuck Thats got to be one of the good advantages of Holy in that everyone can gather round & watch the antics of others as the site is very walkable
From a fundraising point of view,we made a profit of £105 after paying the farmer his dues so thanks a ton to all those who supported the event We now have £1060 in the bag towards our goal and I know Reeco still has a few tricks up his sleeve as well as the southern FOG event taking place a bit later
Here's a few pics I managed to take!

I can only imagine that a lot of people are staring to look at the costs involved in getting to events as money gets rather tight.I can honestly understand & support that but as you alluded to Ian, a wee pm would be nice jus to put one in the picture

[big red fronty]

looks like you had a really good time lads. wish i could have been there but besides having a little accident in my other car( other half wont let me forget it either and have had to buy a new bumper! ) was stuck in london fitting generators!!
am dieing to get this fronty dirty!
looking forward to the next one (hopefully get there then )

[woodwizzard]

Great pics guys and glad you had a good time and raised abit more cash. You lot seem to get stuck abit more than you should, I think you need some lessons from the best in the west..........when I find him I'll send 'im up

[Frontycustoms]

I was nearly on the way about 2 ish but my damn intermitent miss fire came back again so i didnt risk it sorry.

No mate your not pointig the finger. i agree if people put down there names they could at least let others know that they can not get,because of others waiting around for them. still looked a fantastic day and i'm stll a bit fed up about not getting to it

[frontydan]

Well what an absolute scream that site is.
Although i got stuck twice on the first two obstacles attempted the day did improve, it was great to get some input from Jase and Bobby with regards to water runs........ even if Bobby was sat next to me egging me on in the toy while his truck stayed on the car park, apparently the women were too comfy to move out. Personally i fink i was Bobby's guinea pig 'cos he didn't want to kill his truck AGAIN.
As far as the big lean i had on the photos don't do it justice really but i can state that my CD multi changer threw an error up because the angle of lean was to extreme for it. It was atrue brown trouser moment and i have never got out of a truck so carefully in my life.
It was agreat day and as Jay said although only 4 trucks made it to the meet we had a bloody good day with a shed load of good lighthearted banter.......... so here's to the next day out cos i for one can't wait.

Cheers again to the guys that made it and to those who didn't all i can say is " My god you missed one hell of a fun day"

Hi PP,
