    Feel free to throw up a few pictures there!!
    I only have two pics that I took from the cab when it got stuck with me. You can see on the left where she sank down and could not make it up the little hill. I reversed back and tried again. I reversed back again and waited for OH to come along. I never thought of taking a pic from the outside. It was getting dark when OH came and the pics I took did not come out.
    The pass is narrow with a 6 or 7 foot drop on one side and about 4 foot on the other. We ruled out tipping the load because the tractor was buried to the axles at that stage and unlikely to pull itself and/or the trailer out.
    They got the tractor & trailer out this morning with the track machine.
    Have not been there yet as I am waiting for vet to come.

    They had that as new idea this year. Let locals that abroad see show/mates etc and also maybe attract people for again. Do help out beforehand and on day. What you think.

    Well the good news is that I eventually got the first load of turf home :rolleyes:
    The man who owns the track machine also made a new pass through some cut away bog - just to the right of the original pass. So fingers crossed will be able to get in and out tomorrow.
    The bad news is that Biddy was down flat in the shed this morning. I tried getting her to sit up with the help of some straps and the 50b. Vet came and had a look at her and could do nothing. The Vet said that her heart was racing and it looked liked her kidneys were failing. The dead lorry man despatched her.
    She was a gentle cow and fed 7 sucks twice a day when we got her first.
