No photos I'm afraid but know it is a true story from a few days ago

Farmer friend goes away on holiday, leaves son in charge.

Game keeper goes off with Landie and becomes stuck in the woods.  Farmers son goes off with Teleporter, it also becomes stuck.  150 hp 4WD tractor with chain also becomes stuck.  Second Teleporter sent in, you've guessed it

Right time for the big boy, big Caterpillar rubber track,  yes also stuck.

Another friend with a winch tries to pull from the road but no straight pull as trees are in the way........fail

Professional firm came with proper equipment,  Farmer friend has not confessed the bill yet!

gotta be the fat end of 1k to get them all out,  what say ye?

A pity I live just too far away to try out the Hyster on the D7. 35 tons of pulling power and 100 yards of 1 1/4" cable I could have charged £950!

Tom forgot to lift the 3 point so the draw bar dug in.

 Towing this out snapped a not inconsiderable rope though it was old and perished stiff.

This short clip is merely part of a far greater lesson in why Bandits are best taken off road in drought conditions...
