Had a tractor pull us off a field in Wales at the Abbey meet a few years ago when we first got the van :P

Missing our flowery bongo but like the new one too

See you there and might make a cuppa if you're nice :P

embarrassing isn't it :oops: Remember the bongo being so good on a muddy field, but the space in the new van makes up for the one and only time so far of being pulled out by a tractor :)

Yep, that's the only time I've been stuck :roll:
There was very nearly a nasty accident though :shock: Before sending for the Unimog, we tried using those grip mat things - got the wheels on them and proceeded to try reversing - the wheels turned and the mats lost grip and shot forward, missing my friend by no more than a couple of feet - he wasn't impressed :lol: :lol: We had a good laugh afterwards, but it wasn't funny when it happened [-X

:o those grip mats are basically useless! What van have you got now? We have an Elddis Firestorm and love her. Miss the bongo for day car but not as a camper :P
