Rain

I've seen on the news, you had a lot of rain in England, cummulating into floods. Has anyone experienced this disaster? Hopefully you didn't.
I suppose the rain results in a lot of mud. Any good driving over there by now?

hello,
disaster, yeah been pretty wet, couple of big puddles that have caused me to slow down but smile alot means sibbertoft at christmas will be pretty cool

cheers kieran

The council came around and cleaned out all the drains, de-trollied the ditches, even had their crazy leaf clearing wagon out, so no flooding just here - even in the areas that often flood when there's any heavy rain.

We've not seen the mother-in-law this week - she's in Cumbria where apparently it rained properly.

Does this mean i need Simex or will the BFG be sufficient?
However, I will take a groundanchor, you'll never know.
Is there footage online about Sibbertoft?
Would like to know what to expect

btw, little of topic, should have posted in random

Site website has some photos and video.

Google Maps View shows the 4x4 course in the dry.

And finally some video from YouTube

I've seen the shots on the site, too bad the video didn't work. Seems a nasty terrain, afterso much rain. real challenging

i should think you will find plenty of places to get stuck ...

i can find the pictues but i managed it quite well

I can assure you, i know very well how to get stuck

Yes so did Tango one last year ! Just about everytime it moved !!!

Kieran rather famously got a bit wet as well but as I can't work out how to put a photo on here you will have to use you imagination !!!

Did you mount slicks?

If you have the picture somewhere online, it isn't difficult. rightclick on picture, select properties, paste the adress here between clicks on image
To say different: click image paste adress click image again

or highlight it and only click image once, to host it click host an image, ill try and get my old pc with the majority of my pics online at some point ill be able to do it then

Hi Kieran,
How does it work?
can't log in, with the passwords used here.

Ahh someone knows how to post piccies (sorry Jaap Photos)

rain... pfft dont need that we have settled snow here, just had a snow ball fight

Hi Kieran,
Where would i find you this time, as you are in the snow?
Haven't heard of any snow in Brittain yet.
Still haven't figured out the "host an image".
Would be nice if you could explain it.
By the way, nice ditch you got stuck in. Is that Sibbertoft by any chance?

Jaap,

If you have a facebook account I have posted all the Sibbertoft photos I took last year on Lenny's page.

click the host an image tab above, enter your forum regestered email and then your forum password,once your in its pretty easy to work out, if your still struggling ill put togather a load of pics with text on to help out,
im up in buxton in the high peak in derbyshire, lots of green laning, i woul suggest a trip here if your ever in the area, i have a flat here so can put you up for the night, no snow at this moment it melted soon after it fell, but it fell fast and hard when it did which is a good sign for snow this winter, i beleive north wales has had a fair bit of snow around the snowdonia region, definatly snow around ben nevis in scotland

cheers kizz

This does not work for new users (or users that have never used the Host An Image system before).

See "Posting pictures" thread: https://landyrally.forumotion.com/general-chit-chat-f10/posting-pictures-t925.htm

mmm,
thanks Andy, was a bit feared it was me. Seems the system is still down. I read this thread before and thought Kieran found the way. Not.
Most of my pics are online, so i can use them anyway.

@ Kieran.
strange weather you've had this year. First a terrible summer, opposite to ours, now a lot snow and we've had only rain.
Can we expect snow in 2 weeks?
would be fun

it was s strange summer, because i was in wales and it was mostly hot which is surly wrong,
hmmm i cant say yet too be fair lol

cheerskieran
