The Pembridge lads were busy with axes and winch removing a few trees that had decided to come down over part of our route...
Missed a few good moments (as I seemed to be in the car when they happened) or I'd leapt out and forgot the camera DUH !
hope someone got pics of me being recovered at the top of the tobogan run

Might I suggest that a contributory factor is that on steep downhill slopes Chris himself is sat forward of the front axle and therefore significantly altering the weight distribution of the Volvo beastie ... Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
