A big thank you to Yogi and Tim !!
« on: July 03, 2011, 06:11:46 AM »
A special mention and huge thank you to Yogi ( winch bitch ) and Tim ( The winch bitch bitch !! ) for the continued winching and snatching everyone out of the difficult crossings. They would always go ahead and be ready to assist when needed. The more stuff in a yellow can he had the more help he was !!! As one guy who was watching us at nolans brook said about Yogi's cruiser "that thing is a weapon". Thanks again Yogi!!!

Tim was always at Yogi's  side jumping into the mud to help get the vehicles out. I think he really just loved the mud as he would do it when we were not stuck !!! Also Tim your assistance in vehicle repairs and advice was invaluable!! A big thank you.

A special mention to JK and Symon for their help also during the trip. They would always jump in when needed.

That's the swagger spirit alive and well :cup:

You do know that mud is good to exfoliate your skin with :laugh:

The boys did a fantastic job recovering us all. Vi timed how long it took to get us out of Nolans Brook from the video footage.... 40 seconds  :cheers:

I would also like to say a big thank you to Yogi and Tim for all the hard work they did scouting the crossings, assisting in recoveries and all the hard work they did to get us all over all the risks and hazzards that we encounted along the way.

Top Effort from you both.

I've never seen anyone work so hard with a smile on his face as Tim, and I know Yogi must have got a cramp in his winch finger. Thanks fellas.

Thanks to everyone on the trip ...... little did I know that the stuff in the yellow cans is good enough to live one with out food ..... who would have thunk it ;D Timmy you did teach me something after all ........... lol

Look the trip was what you made of it and most people made 110% of every moment. I am still making repairs to the truck ..... less than expected so all is good.
