Blitz at work

hrpearce · #1 26-09-10, 12:33

I haven't had a chance to drive my blitz for a couple of months so as it was a warm day today I drove it to Batlow for the monthly club meeting. I had a great day teaching fellow moterists to relax and have patience on the long stretches of double lines

I parked in front of the IGA to do grocery shopping on the way home and the blitz turned a lot of heads. I think most of the P platers in there shiny new cars thought I was crazy by the looks they gave me.

I like to look in the rear vision mirror to see all my "followers" too.

How embassering I forgot the rule of checking gully crossings with a stick before driving into them after a flood. Feel free to laugh.

Hope it wasn't a long walk to get the tractor!

Should have mentioned that about 1Km mostly downhill.

Oops!!!
Haven't done THAT yet but nearly did on the Oodnadatta Track at Alberrie Creek in August. The mud/ooze was over the sidesteps front to rear on my 4x4. Took 6 of us 4 hours to dig, jack, pull, swear and 10 railway sleepers of the old Ghan railway to get it out. Once we broke the suction, it was a lot easier. I did think we would have to bring in an excavator to extract it.

So a downhill walk to the tractor would have been a soda.

Happy New Year, Robert.
