I'll 2nd that. And i didnt get stuck, apart from when the fronty pulled me out, and when Rich gave me a tow. And i didnt have any damage, apart from getting a puncture, denting my front bumper and smashing my left wing mirror with Rich's help.

just got in I am knackered!!! had to get my dad to drive some of the way home as i was falling asleep! What a great day the only damage i have (at the moment!!!) is a stop light not working!!! i did hit a lot of trees but they seemed to pop the dents right back out for me, which was nice of them. I got stuck about 20 mins into it and got pulled out by a very nice man in a land rover. i did say to him about him getting through and he said they dont even try it cos its too hard, i think just about everyone that went in the water there got stuck and needed to get pulled out! My dad got stuck in some ruts in some VERY muddy stuff and was trying to push the tree that was blocking our path down! i managed to use the spade (that everyone laughed at me for having!!!) to dig us out and we rescued ourselves! come the end of the day on our last trip round all together i was last and though i would go over the bit the others drove around when i got over the first hump i saw why they did and changed my mind, only it was too late and was stuck and could not go back. I couldn't even open the door as i was wedged. so i went for it and made it more accessible for others by flattening the corner with my door!
My dad has only really help me fix my truck and seen me tow cars in it and he was impressed with that! Today i think he was REALLY impressed he kept saying ' you can't drive through that!' but like a good surfer i did and he could not believe what these trucks can do and now he wants one, although he says he doesn't have the space.
Thanks rich for organising today and thanks to everyone who pitched up as it was a great day enjoyed by all (including the people that lost parts will let them explain) we even saw a flying car!!!it never rain it pours! glad I got the 4X4
