cool had to ask the question. Alot of people so called offroaders often try and come out without any recovery points only a tie down loop for transportation

Hey Jai,
What a nightmare!!! I managed to get it my ma's that night. I was going to call over the weekend, but as I'm moving I've been so busy and stressed coupled with the gargantuan problems I'm having at work. Cheers for your help on the phone. The AA mechanic was an absolute C@*T, the recovery bloke was much more pleasant. If you can help me out I would greatly appreciate it, I don't mind paying for your time and fuel.

Hi All,
Visiting from the dark side, just thought I should post to say hi.
Jai, thanks for the tyre and the few lanes the other night mate, although I did run out of diesel in Hitchin town centre and it took 2 Hours for the AA man to get to me. The nearest 24hr fuel station was stevenage.
Got home about 4am.
Had my injector pump finally repaired by the man around the corner and he has done a really good job. Blasted the pump case and renewed all the shafts and seals and wotnot. Running really well and no smoke, or leaks.
Cost £400 in the end but money well spent.
Hope to catch up soon, if not see you at the next pub meet.

Didn't fancy phoning you after you had just got home at stupid a clock in the morning. Thought it was a tad unfair, thanks for the offer though Jai.

honestly mate next time no probs shout we all stick together here and help out if we can. If you did it a second time running out of fuel thats permission for us to rip the **** outter you! But once is ok i'll tell you what I told Ryder when he forst come out laning with me, you will one free tow or help the next time you get muddy and put the rope on.
Unfortunatly for me Ryder decided to get his free tow while under 3 foot of water which meant i got a tad wet that day, much to the amusment of Rach and Ryders family he was nice and warm and dry in his shogun! i like to think Herts laners philosophy is to always help others that are in your group no matter how deep, how stuck or how long they are stuck for. Thats somthing I have always done and think its the norm within the regulars of our little greenlane gang.
Ow and I do like the odd bit of recovery work especially when others have failed with better equipment and vehicles. Unimogs and 10tonne shackels comes to mind. Gettting cars limping home thinking on my feet under pressure is my thing i love it!
