what a day from start to finish,some cracking lanes done. myself ,mr oaks,simon and san started around newton abbot way and headed kings teighnton etc . took in some cracking lanes and a lot of new ones . a mistake by myself saw a half hr recovery operation in wich everyone mucked in to get me out. many thanks to all for that one the lanes was very very overgrown and visability was poor ,i took my eyes of the lane for a split second and dropped my nearside down into a bank wich saw my car leaning somewhat into a field. luckily we managed to use the winch on sans vitara with a strop and snatch block to pull myself back up. and a well placed set of boards we then pressed on and made our way back towards home taking in lanes all the way back to totnes. the fuel pump on my vit packed in so we had to tow it back to plymouth. unfortunatly no pics as camera battery was flat a great day all in all many thanks to all who came...

It was a good day, the incident with Big Nasty was looking like a simular situation that Jimpics got himself in but lucky in this lane we had large trees right next to the track and one happened to be right next to the pajero, so with the winch attached at least the pajero couldnt drop any further through the bank and down into the field below it also acted as a falcron in that as the paj was driven foward over the waffle boards it would also be pulled up the bank. the problem was the trees were well hidden behind a load of thorny bushes and in the process of clearing this to be able to get the tree strop round i managed to get a thorn stuck in my finger, just in front of the index finger knuckle, unable to remove it in the lane I thought i'd get it out at home after a bit of a soak in the bath, cutting the punture wound open a bit more i still couldn't see the end of the thorn and i was making a bit of a mess, so being late i thought i'd leave it to the morning and see the doctor not wanting to go to Derriford A&E and spend most of the night there. The doctors was busy so i went to the Cumberland Center, they tried to remove the thorn but no joy and i was refered to Derriford A&E anyway... The junoir Doctor I had there was cracking but even after cutting deeper she was unable to grab the thorn at least now the end could be felt with the twezzer things, but afraid of damaging tendons ligaments etc she called a senior doctor into help, it was looking like i was going to be refered for surgury to get the thorn removed, when on the last attempt the senior doctor managed to grab the thorn and pull it out..... we all looked in surprise as the all but inch long thorn came out.... no wonder I could hardly bend my finger ... :lol: Mr Nasty you owe me big time for all this pain......
