Hey extreme I'll try and scrounge the special alan key thing ASAP.
Sounds like you've been doing boy shopping! Does the misses know:augie

to be honest i had most of it before
except the ropes me and Howard made up but they only cost 35.00 materials. just couldn't decide how to get it all on the truck i thought most would have to go on the roof.

but it all fits in quite neatly and it wont all go rusty outside.
(that reminds me to fix the leaking seal around back door tomorrow)

so i can go mad with the spots when i get the roof done

the wife is talking now. sadly i was enjoying the quiet

Thanks hope things go well for you too:thumbs that pint your or mine:lol:lol

woow so not for us first timers then really puts you off
Or ........

 

[extreme-4x4]

it can be really good fun . you can do things that will really excite you . things you wouldn't think your truck will do.



but

if your not careful and don't look before you go (like we all did) the best you can hope for is getting stuck for 5-6 hours
you could easily have some bad accident in there

in our case it was a case of having a good time and didn't concentrate on the job at hand... no one looked first


stunning place ...absolutely stunning

 

[makeitfit]

NO worry not we had a ball It's just the last downhill bit out of the sticks turned out to be a quagmire and river bed and thick forest and and and NO BEER at all:augie
That was the problem with Malcolm I reckon

 

[willow]

It all sounds like places I go With a pony stunning exciting exuberating fun fun fun...........

and we can jump a hedge to get out of the way of on comming 4x4s:lol:lol:lol:lol:lol..............
