what a great day out  
the sun was shining all day
a few newbies didnt turn up  

so we went in 2 cars to save fuel  

this is grendle my driver for the day  



we went to see if the G wagon would fit down this one



no chance  







grendles broken mirror































a branch came through the window and slapped grendle in the face  



a well earned T break the first of many through out the day  





there seem to be lots of trials on today





grendle gave this chap a tow to the main road as he had broken the drive  









we met tractor bob in the lanes once more  



roadrottie was experiencing some cb issues but we soon sorted it out with this  















oh no we have sprung a leak    
grendle thinks he is in a U boat













since we drove through all the water we had a squealing from the belts so decided to have a quick check



grendle was taking a quick look





so thats where my belt has gone  



another trial was in progress



we didnt get to much further when we noticed the squeal has turned into a rumble





oh no we seem to have run over grendle  



we had a quick check inside the hubs as the noise is getting bad now



grendle was getting his hands dirty so we cleaner the hub for him  





now he is under the car cleaning everything with the new sainsburys anti bacterial cleaner  



wow a very rare sight in these here parts of devon

as usually these country folk got there caps on  

2 bold eagles  
on offer buy one get one free  

its bill and ben the bold head men  



we managed to find where the noise was coming from and it appeared to be the propshaft uj
and it wasnt to good so opted for a steady drive home via the easy lanes  













thats all i had today

not so easy trying to take the photos from the passenger side  

big thanks to all that turned up today  
i had a right laugh
even when grendle got me soaked with water

till the next adventure

Spot on,
At was great....bought the paj, on a whim......best purchas for ages....
Great day out, sun shine all day, lots of mud too, and lots of techie lanes..
Used to many of them as a quad rider, didnt think they could be done in a 4 x 4, but supersurf sorted that,!!!!!
Defo a new hobby for me, loving the paj.
Oh, and if your out laning, and find a number plate, its mine! ( if it matches the rear, if not then its not mine...lol)

Will load pictures once im on pc....
Cheers guys for letting us come along, nice bunch of guys...see you for the next one,,,,
