    Wedge trip

    Hi
    For some reason I can not post pics my pics, oh well.

    Here's a few pics from the west coast 4x4 trip up to wedge, about 8 vehicles in total with three landys, two from AULRO:

    PS see if you can spot my Rangie with the flag :-)

    Thought i'd try to post one of your pics


    That worked.

    How are you trying to post the image

    This is how i did it;

    Went to the link you supplied.

    Right mouse clicked on an image

    went to properties, this brings up a box

    then right click on the address/URL

    THEN LEFT CLICK SELECT ALL

    right click on highlighted URL

    THEN LEFT CLICK COPY

    THEN OK

    when posting go to the envelope simbol click on it, a box will appear, ctrl/V and ok and it should appear.

    Of coarse if your doing this already, then disreguard my post

    Some great photos in there, looks like a lovely place.

    Baz.
    Cheers Baz.

    The white Maverick's coil died, a few hundred metres from Wedge Beach. The Patrol towed him onto a flat part of the beach, where we stopped to have lunch. Luckily, Hang Over had a spare coil in the back of his Rangie, which got the Maverick back to civilisation.

    Cheers,

    Gordon

    Was supposed to go on that West Coast 4x4 outing to wedge, the notice said meeting point 7.15am sharp we got there at 7.19am no-one around so we headed up road to cataby never caught up with anyone.

    So we headed to Lancilin and then onto cervantes and pinancles for the day

    Sent email to pommy pete west coast 4x4 saying what had happened he tells me no one else got to meeting point till 7.45 so we werent 4 mins late were 25 mins earlier no wonder we couldnt catch up with anyone.

    west coast 4x4 and go bush clubs usually have good trips been out with both groups

    I read the notice as 7:45am, but I thought it was for Saturday, not Sunday and turned up 24hrs too early Glad I didn't head off to Cataby trying to catch up then!!

    Luckily I got it right the next day

    Cheers,

    Gordon

    what made me really laugh on the day; Gordon, remember the bloke in the Pajero?? he'd only had it a few weeks, anyhow ...................

    I was talking to him and asked if he'd been out with WC4X4 before he said it was his first time and didn't know anyone. He said he was waiting to meet up with some other group from another club but got there early and just decided to tag along with WC4x4 instead. How funny is that !

    Oh yer well we were going with them but you lot are here so you'll do.
    That's one of the best thing about 4x4, (landys and other) eveyone just gets on with it and each other.
    It makes me dispise my Falcon more each day.

    It would be good if road users treated each other like 4x4 drivers do.
    oops too many drinks gone to my head I'd better stop waffling on.
