One has to ask at this time-what where they doing out that late.

If it is that dodgy-organise day recovery.

Ninga Haggis

Rope or ratchet strap it to something-pictures would help.
 
Have spoken to bunny.

Vehicle is on a steep embankment alongside the road. Vehicle is parallel to the road with drivers side on the high side and both passenger side wheels dug in. Several other 4x4's on scene but with limited kit.


Ive advised him to dig the mud out from. Behind the wheels to aid extraction. Ive also told him to get the vehicle pulled around to 90 degs to the road. He's now gone off to start digging.
 
I have just told him to.....

Make sure it's safe. Anchor the vehicle to stop it rolling prior to working on the down hill side.
We don't want a fatality.
 
Looks like all his "mates" have buggered off and left him :(.

I have told him to make sure he is safe. Hunker down & I will contact him again about 8:00.

Ratty - can I ask yu to keep an eye/ear out for him till then, when you can?
 
All sorted now. Cheers for the help / advice :)
ended up getting cars recivery from ellon, paid for by the aa to pull me.out. Then found front left tyre was pulled off the rim and back bumper has moved a good bit from recovery atempts. So at qas 132 quid to get recoverd to aberdeen :mad: Tried a shogun with a 300tdi disco bi pulling at the same time. No luck :( just snapped my big hoora chain :+ by the time we had fooked about the back passenger tyre had dissapeared in the mud.
Away to sleep now. Pics in morning after sleep. Il be fixing tyre and bumper when wake up so can get home too haha.
