I've done it again !
Went to the Candelo show today [with the 5'er on] parking was in a cemetery, I was passing a large truck and trailer parked on the road way the 5'er slipped sideways and guess what?
I was high and dry on a grave !
Had to wait all day for the show to finish and most of the vehicles were gone. My plan was to get a tow truck and pull the 5'er sideways off the tomb.
However four lads [18-20 age group] said we could get it off. After getting a horse float moved and unhooking the 5'er I approached from a different angle, re-hooked up and was able to back it side ways off the grave [was made of granite] without too much damage to both the 5'er and the grave stone.
Now back parked in the rest area at Candelo for the night.

The gravity of the situation is minimal

I thought that all of you could do better than that.

think they are a tad scared to in case they upset the residents of the park. But now I am sure there will be some forthcoming Peter. Were there any complaints from the residents at all or was there just a moan or two?

If I get a call on my mobile at 7.50pm and that person calling says he is from Telco?? at least they could ring during business hrs and bloody well speak English or to be PC speak Australian. Told it to go -----himself.
Now I am going to let you lot in for a little secret I have been keeping.. I have been doing a "hands on" learn as you go course but I shall sit back and wait for you to guess what it is. I will bet that not one of you come anywhere close.

I think the lines could be altered from that great Rocky Horror musical into something more fitting:
So , let's look back of the cab ,
And see what's on the slab.
I see you shiver with antici......pation.
But maybe the rain
Isn't really to blame.
But Peter's drifting skills
need more edu.....cation

If it's what I'm thinking then I won't be coming anywhere close
