Rip-off recovery
nufcgirlie:
Hi Rolla :wink:
Johnnie is fine, but is stressing himself out over Doug!!! :shock: He appears to be running fine but for lots of white smoke coming out from the exhaust :shock: When we got him home, Drum and Johnnie spent the entire afternoon drying him out and giving him a full service. He fired up OK and has fired up each and every time since, but still lots of white smoke :shock: :shock: :shock:
I know Drum suspects he is only running on 3 cylinders but he sounds about the same to us as he did before his swim???? We just can,t make us minds up whether he is under the weather, sick, very sick, or terminally sick :? :? :? :shock:

OK.. no need for that !
Clearly mistakes were made during the recovery, and it is fortuitous that nobody was injured or worse... this is the important bit !
Lessons for everyone, both participants and observers.... 8)

I thought the marshalls did a good job from what I saw.
The course was well laid out but a couple of places found the signs a bit confusing but think that was due to lack of sleep and beer in take the night before.
The course itself was good though as I know that it would have to be catered for every one from totaly standard freelanders etc right up to the modified beasts that where there
The kids enjoyed the ride around (took us just over an hour)My youngest slept most of it though but I think she could of slept through the extream at langdale that day.
Did anyone buy any photos as well?
I got myself one but would of liked more although wasnt going to pay £30 for a CD as this seemed a right rip off

We were told on the saturday that they couldnt do pictures cos the printer had got water in and I asked about a cd with ourselves, nufcgirlie and drum on as we had gone together and they had left obviously after the incident but they wanted £90 for all 3 vehicles on 1 cd!!! Now that was definately a rip off :cry: and they had some really good pics of us going through the water, oh well we did video it all :wink:

They way they where working it when I paid for mine was that you addressed an envelope and they send it out in about 7 days
The CD's looked nice but for £30 for about 15 photos or so (many just a couple of seconds apart so not all that different) it just seemed over priced as these things normaly are.
I wonder if they realise that if they charged sensible prices more people are likley to buy thus they can make a decent proffit as would be shifting more items?
