My idea was to dig a bigger hole and bury the whole thing :lol: - What made it worse was the "co-driver" was watching him round :dizzy:

A strop was put round the rear of the trailer to lift it and a drag winch from the rear of the recovery truck to a stout tree and snatch block back to the trailer - The truck had a rotating crane on it :thumbup:
