Knock me down with a feather, M43 under my nose

[Robin Craig]

After jacking up the wheels we threw a short length of wood under the wheel until all four corners we free. Each wheel was checked for free play as it was lifted.

The way in to the truck was past a big wooden crate and a pile of frozen dirt that made it a bit tight.

We used the loader of our tractor from work to attach to the rear tow hook on the ambulance and thread it back out to the field from the bush. I have come quite accustomed to using the loader because of the ability to see what is going on in front and how manoeuvrable the load is. One has to be very careful to keep things plumb under the bucket or you risk flopping the tractor over.
