OK, firstly, apologies for not updating the site for a few weeks, I couldn't find the lead for the camera! But I have it now and it's all on the computer. It hadn't rained for a week or so so we weren't expecting too much mud, how wrong we were!
Most of these pictures have been taken from the video camera so they are not the best quality...

Ok, well, our first stop was into the middle of the site, and we saw this guy on Wipeout Hill.

We said that if he can make it then we would have a go. He got this far but couldn't get any further?

Oh yeah, forgot to set the hubs to 'lock'! We've all been there!
[1].jpg)
Once they were locked he had another go but didn't get enough run up...
[3].jpg)
So he backed up a bit and got out using the other exit! Well Done!

He's free!

After that my dad had to have a go!

Makes light work of the climb...
[3].jpg)
And straight into the thick of it!
[4].jpg)
Tried to get out but couldn't quite make it
[5].jpg)
Splashed back into the mud and got out via the other exit, unfortunately a tree got in the way of the shot so I didn't get the exit...

Next this Landy had a go, but was on road tyres, he didn't even make it up the slope.

And very wisely went back out the way he came in!
This was also playing that day, a rather large UniMog ( I think that's how it's spelt!)
Look at the height of it campared to a lifted Range Rover!
This nice Light Weight Landy was also playing, he had AT tyres on but he got around pretty well!!

Then we went for a drive around the site and we came across that Landy again, only this time he was being rescued from nessie! 10/10 for effort!

A Range Rover making light work of getting it out!

He away again!

Then his mate went in, only he had mud tyres on...
[6].jpg)
Straight out!
[7].jpg)
Next in was this SJ with rather cool bull bars!
[8].jpg)
Throwing up a nice amount of spray from the front tyres! But made it out all the same!
.jpg)
After this my dad wanted to have a go...
[1].jpg)
[2].jpg)
It wasn't as deep as it has been, but deep enough!
[5].jpg)
But he chose a good line and made it straight out
[1].jpg)
Next it was my turn!
[2].jpg)
I chose practically the same line as my dad...
[4].jpg)
Doing well...

And out! Not bad. One more trip around the site and we had to go as my dad was working nights that day.
There is a Byway near the entrance of Woodlands and we decided to have a run down there on the way home, "to get the mud off of the tyres" as my dad put it!
I only had room on the camera for one more pic so here it is:
My Dad, Ethan and John saying goodbye to all of my lovely viewers! Can't wait ti'll the next one!
Oh yeah, almost forgot... when we got home I saw that we had broken something!
Nothing major but annoying all the same!
