good job, i am all for it. but do we have to meet at lilydale macca's, its 7 to 8 mins drive in heavy traffic from my place. mooroolbark would be much more convenient as it's only 250m from me.

Mooroolbark is off the beaten path (just). You have to go through lilydale anyway, and 7am should be pretty light on the traffic.

yeah just kidding mate, either way its under 10 mins, i am playing on the fact that many of you will have to drive nearly an hour to get to the meeting point and others of us like me are almost around the corner.

Whatever you guys eventually end up doing, have a good & safe time.

AND make sure the trip report is written by our undercover pulitzer writer Mr Adam Craze.

I am still coming to terms with his last effort.

Quote:

Everyone through, Jimbo and I were left. Jimbo cruised through the first and stopped half way through the other.bleep, he was stuck, and the water was up over the doors and over the towbar and almost at the rear door. I am not sure what it looked like from the front as I was behind him, but he kept the 4wd running as the muffler blew bubbles like an outboard. I quickly ran to the Jack and got my snatch strap and shackled the strap onto the Jack and ran straight into the water boots, jeans and all. The Water was ice and dirty. With the towbar under water I am asking Jimbo where the recovery points are, there is a hook there and a recovery point too. Frantically searching I find the recovery point,bleepit wasn’t the hook. Run out of the water, almost going arse over, put the snatch onto my hook and back into the ice to shackle the snatch on the recovery point. I ran back to the Jack and we slowly pull Jimbo backwards.
Unquote:

Having seen two photos of the aforementioned so called predicament, that show the 'can' in a tad of water up to its hubs at best, and the author of the above piece of science fiction writing stand at the back up to his ankles in it, all I can say Crazie is, you are full of it.

ROFLMAO

See! all those years reading those books and mags labelled in big letters with XXXX's weren't misspent after all.

Still ROFLMAO

The excitement, the descriptive phrases, the suspense all had me reaching for my 'special' pills and then I saw the photos. Hell, I expected water and mud over the bonnet and p i s s i n g in the windows.

Oh! this just pure gold, even Trucky thinks so.

Aw! I have to come to your place in the next day or two and how am I going to look you and shaver girl in the eye and with a straight face say - my hero.

I can't keep this up any longer as my guts hurts from laughing so much.

Some one wanted to know if you are in traction or wearing a neck brace from, as Jimbo stated, 'diving in to save' him.
