Had a quick look at Devil’s Pit on the 27th. Young lady who collected the car park fee told me they close the pit in July and August because of holidays and dusty conditions. We parked up and began to have a cuppa. Noticed a lad with a garden sprayer pumping up the pressure. Next thing the lad is spraying a slim chap in blue overalls in a modded zooky. A motorcycle crash helmet soon spider webs the windscreen on the old jalopy the lad is hiding in. Slim is not satisfied with trashing the screen but decides to jump on the bonnet as well. Chap who owns pit truck is lest than pleased and threatens to ram slims Zooky. “!!!! off Palmer don’t be a pratt,” shouts Slim. Time to move away from the mad sods.
Very few Surfs today but some very expensive Landy’s. One in particular stood out from the rest. Chap told me it was 2 months old and he had spent £45K on it. He said he had to spend another £10K to finish the job!
Watched the action for a bit, loud crunching of under body damage could be heard from many vehicles. Decided it was not a good day to try my luck for the first time. Wandered back to our truck to find Slim lying under his Zooky. “Transfer box has fell off “ reported Slim. “Me mates gone to find some exhaust mounting bolts to get it going again” I mentioned the expensive Landy. “This one cost £175 plus the modifications” grinned Slim. “Go any where it will” Having seen Slim in action I believed him. Who went off to buy the rubber mounting bolts? the same chap Slim had trashed the screen for. Slightly bewildered I made my way out of the pit. Who said "another cup of lunatic soup please"?
