Default 1st post of 2020 with action and adeventuire and also a little spoiler ;)

Hello all how's everyone doing first post for this year so like too wish you all a happy new year and hope you all had a great xmas period and new year.
I was working all the way through it sadly but some sad beeper has too

Well here's my little adventure I did yesterday which you find amusing good start too the year I say


A ford escort that thought it was a 4x4 had a bit of a adventure after having a good catch up with Samantha who I haven't seen in 10 years but we Finally met again after all these years a brilliant catch up.
In such good spirits thought I'd have a bit of fun in old esacort and that was try too get too the highest point of the slate quarry my dad used too bring his Range Rover P38 too for a laugh during our younger days.
Thought beep it and give the escort a go going up it, lots of bumps and missing under tray later the little escort proved it can take the punishment filled with pride I'd thought I'd take on the steepest hill I can find and attempt too go up well plenty of attempts later I still couldn't get up the beeping thing but I had fun trying I think you ever need too conquer a slate quarry get a Range Rover or anything with four wheel drive.
Then disaster struck while on my way down I had too go though the worst part of the adventure and that was getting across a very swampy part of the track well before I just went all out and hoped for the best hopes and dreams worked brilliant on the way down however hopes and dreams went out the beeping window when I nearly tipped the beeper over and both wheels now fully submerged there was no way I was getting out of it without tow.
Hour later found a farmer who had a 4x4 which was perfect for the job and brand new only just had it and he was eager too test it out the new Ford Ranger looked beeping good and had the grunt that goes with it pulled me out with ease like it was nothing.
So glad for his help saved me ass big style.
Not long got home and still got the smile on my face sure I very nearly got myself stuck at the same time it was fun and just living free without a care in the world and just enjoying life and this NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD- awesome ford

SPILER ALART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Talking Appealing behaviour

Why would you take a vehicle unsuitable for the task off road!

Not that I would do such a thing with a lowered BMW 325 in my younger days. And definitely not down one of the gravel rally stages in the Kielder forest. And not thinking "what if you get a puncture" or "mobile signal gone, that's nice"!

I certainly would not ignore the signs saying it was only suitable for of road vehicles!
