Off road caravaning

Had a call yesterday morning from a friend that had broken down while moving a caravan in his field he keeps his feed in for the horses.
He had managed to burn his clutch out and was stuck in a bog.
Had great fun winching his terrano out of the way up to solid ground and tugging the caravan across the wet,muddy fields to the lane.
Had a couple of arse clenching moments moving it as the field slopes down to a stream so had to drive across the incline and i was being dragged sideways at times towards the boggy flooded areas.

I then went back and towed the terrano up to the lane where we started it in gear and my mate limped it home.
I'm expecting another phone call today as he was borrowing his brothers shogun and trailer to fetch the rest of his gear from the same field
