Everybody drove home afaik. There should have been a special prize for the (belgian?) chap who had a go in the peachy blue Caravelle GL on 6 x 14's, complete with chrome hubcaps!
The bus was just perfect, really lovely

I meant damage from the course, I know Lloydy split his front panel and Slobo smashed his bumper on the see saw, just wondering if there were any more.
No way would I have got on that see saw.
All credit to Lee, who had been watching very carefully and shared his observations on the see-saw before we had a go. Namely, creep up to the balance point and let it roll back a whisker as you apply the brakes gently but firmly

not that bad, teeny, teeny seam split. Fixed already. We will get you off road Rob
never been on a see saw before but have seen it done loads so i knew about the roll back trick. got it right first time. was it beginners luck or tallent???
I don't have that excuse. I have done one once before a few years back but it was in the Red panel van with the modified front end and more height. So if I did it wrong then I didn't notice. It is certainly a mistake I won't be making again. Still got to fix it.
Cheers
Rob.
