The trip was getting boring so I thought I would organize a quick recovery course !The guy behind me (Robbie Robberts) videoed the whole thing and it only took three and a half minutes to get the Yellow Submarine (as it was called on the trip) unstuck

My gesondheid het my bietjie gedrop saterdag middag, en eers twee sondag middag beter begin voel. Toe ons die middag my dogterjie by haar ouma moet gaan haal het se ek vir my vrou ek is so speit dat ek uitgemis het en besuilt toe om 'n draai deur die veld te ry.......groot fout om dit alleen te doen....ek sal 'n thread begin....
