I did do a little standing around while people who know far more than me dragged her out of the gloop! They probably also knew not to go there in th 1st place but that is a different story. I blame D3Matt as he got through OK, twice!

who cares, you had helpers at hand and at the end of the day, it sounds like you all had a blast

It was a great day, I think all enjoyed it and, apart from liberal scattering of plastic front trays, all survived in one piece. Took me ages to hose all the sand & mud out, sign of a good day out. What other car can you drive 170 miles, off road all day, pick up a 4 foot round table & four chairs (from inlaws) and then drive 230 miles home and still be up at 6:30am next day!

True but wouldn't want to get that muddy. Drove through a few puddles this morning so it might need washed again!
Whilst I appear to be letting myself in for this again (group buy take #2), I think it would be a good time to let everybody know that their participation in the first group buy has raised a total of £300 towards the disco3.co.uk site.
This is averaged out at £12 per plate.
My initial calculations were that there would be an £8 donation to the site on each plate. However, some creative negotiation and accounting skill has resulted in a 50% increase in target donation.
I think Martin will permit me to thank all of you who participated in this on his behalf
