I agree that is the reason why! I bloody was having fun and only had it 2 weeks and just got carried away! Learn te hard way Lucky it's a toy and didnt pay much for it ah! Hopefully it's fine and not a too tricky fix
 
For those that know my MPG has been falling thou the floor lately.
Been adding lots of sunflower oil and its running lovely now (dodgy start 2 weeks ago when cold). Worked out my MPG for the past 600 miles (which included 40 ltrs of veg) and its increased to 24!!!!
Happy days
 
We had to go to lakeside yesterday :( but i took a short cut via Baddow.
As you say, just under two foot and the best bit no houses nearby.

Thomas thought it was great fun, maybe I can get him into Landys yet?

Over to Mum's today so I'll be checking Debenham ford on the way, its been bone dry for the last twelve months, fingers crossed.

Feb 2011 was the last time i found water there:
Debenham fording .m4v - YouTube

Baddow was 6ft 2day!!!
Danbury was just under 4ft
 
The fords must have got a lot deeper overnight, all the ones we did were around the 2ft level, and that was around midnight.
 
What roads that?

I went to nounsley ford all me mates in defenders with proper safari snorkels bottled it but I went through in my disco with DIY snorkel current was strong and pushed me side ways ImageUploadedByTapatalk1335771200.599230.jpg

Had to drain my air box after and my 36 week pregnant girlfriend weren't 2 impressed about the wet feet lol
 
I need to fit my breathers and snorkle today while it's not raining then who is up for going to see some of these fords with me later?
 
I visited Terling and Baddow yesterday afternoon.

This was Terling

As I was on my own i decided not to do either.

The roads around Baddow were great fun though :D

Had a great day at Tye Green as well

Just typical got a break in the weather so I thought I would try and finish of rebuilding the front of me chassis, half way through me mig decides to play silly buggers think I need to put a new linner in it, so it's beer time;) will hopefully get sorted in the week, mikey think we need to arrange a days lanning soon then with all this rain we has had, think nick was planning a day out would be good to all meet up again, matt who's 90 is that looks nice.


Definitely may be the last change to have a decent laining day before everything drys out
