Again top job Doug,
Yes I remember Paul turning at at the wrong spot also LOL.

So my navigational skills need some work (Its hard to juggle a beer whilst texting, adjusting the stereo and eating a hamburger all at once) and you want me to concentrate on driving as well :wink:

Cheers

Horrocks, Hutt River and Port Gregory are fishing really well for Tailor, Mulloway and Shark, just had a wicked two days fishing trip @ Hutt River (Low Swell and NO weed Yeeee Haaaaa).

Oh if ur thinking of heading up this way again then I can supply some tackle and bait (why did that thought pop in my head ??) ;) , I only work 2 days a week now (Fri and Sat) until mid Dec.

Got some good footage of the L pulling out a new Prado on the beach, also no footage but also pulled out a Hilux twice from Port Gregory to Lucky bay along the beach, again the L never got bogged but only had three wheels on the ground and was going nowhere until a mate sat on the front guard to level the L then straight out.

BTW how do I post video footage on Ausubaru ?????

Nice WayneO. I hope the fella's in the other 4wd's got a kick out of the little subie. That Prado was really bogged down by the looks of it. Hadnt let his tyres down?

Yeah his tyres were down @ 16psi, it sux for them as we are mates and were all travelling form Port Gregory to Lucky Bay, 1 x Hilux 1 x Prado and 1 X Toyota Recovery Vehicle (the mighty L) both Toyota's got bogged several times and I have been told there is more footage and will be chasing that down and create a clip.

Cheers

I'd love to camp out at Hutt River but it's going to have to be one of those 4 day long weekenders again, as it's a bit far for us city slickers

I remember asking old Prince Leonard for a knighthood because I cleaned the windscreen on his royal jalopy, he told me to fcuk off but I did have dinner with the family once at the homestead in Hutt River, funny bunch of buggers. I lived in Northampton their closest town.

My van will be ready if I'm in Perth by then but I'll have to park it and hitch a ride on the soft stuff, I'll do a photo write up on it soon.

And you were teasing me about my small tent, small bottle of sauce, small compressor, small wheel's, the list goes on. Seems like your (comparing the the Yota's) small car did pretty well eh? small things seeming pretty good now eh WayneO :D.

I only did a 3 day trip Paul, and Nigel, a single night. I cant get any time off work at the moment though, and weekends are busy.

D Generate, Spare seat in the Old MY your welcome to, though after the clip of your Lib on the dunes, I think It'l more likely be me asking to ride with you :D.

Thanks for the offer, yeah I lived in Lancelin for a couple of years and spent heaps of time up the dunes in my 60 series Landcruiser.

I take it you've seen this on of my old WRX.

Nah it wasnt the WRX, Im pretty sure it was the lib in your sig. That WRX flogs on the dunes. I was waiting for the wheelie and dune leap but then realized I wasn't watching a dune buggy :D. Not far from it though.

Last bit of footage from S bend trip. There was a little bit more of From sunday morning but not much and only on my wagon so I wont bother with it.

Another job well done, loved the stuck on the beach part where you time lapsed it and added audio.

I'd be happy with a overnighter (or 2) but would prefer to leave Perth say around noon on Friday, so we can meet up with Wayneo who has already found the perfect spot for us ;)

Love the videos.. I've only just got to see them properly as internet was too slow for it at work but good work Doug :)

Nope.. I was saying that we (all those that wish to come away) would drive up and catch up with Wayneo that has find the perfect spot whilst we were making our way up there.

I'm at this stage all good until next year. There has been a few offers of work over xmas and new years but neither of these places are offering a penalty rate for this, so it's get through some work in the shop.

I'm keen to do a day/weekend trip down Jules's way but if we want to catch up with Wayneo, then we need to head north.
