I feel I have let motorhomers down badly, on friday arriving at ths weymouth, I managed to get stuck in the mud and had to be towed out by a caravaner with a 4x4. Does this disqualify me from membership of motorhome fun. I promise to try and not do it again if allowed to stay a member

Happened to me in 1991 and the thought still haunts me! Never been back to Billing Aquadrome. I'd like to say time is a great healer etc. etc. but it isn't.

I wonder if the driver of the 4x4 is on another forum somewhere,begging forgiveness for helping a chugger.;);)
He could probably have helped his ratings quite a lot if its members are as wicked as this lot!:D:D

I wouldn't worry about having to be pulled out but I would keep quiet about staying at Billing Aquadrome :eek:

It was not the being pulled out, it was the caravan owners, watching laughing behind closed curtains, after several motorhomers had tried in vain to save my blushes without success.

You are now 'proper motorcaravanner' though it's usually a tractor.

Although I was one of those to get off, you lot are parked on the tarmac at Chester, it would really take some rain to get stuck there (y)(y)

but on a lighter note and to lighten the load on westhammans shoulders, many years ago we went to a touring car event following really heavy rain, only 4 x 4's allowed on to the grass parking area, which included me in my Nissan Patrol, all the car drivers had to park miles away and walk along the same route we could drive on, imagine the jeering I got when I got stuck halfway up a steep grassy slope :(:(

that car could get stuck on a wet tennis court though, massive tyres, probably brilliant in a desert o_O

If you think that's embarrassing try having to ask 2 French lads in a work van to come and pull your camper back onto the level as it's 'teetering' on 3 wheels due to hubby trying to get it to play 'roll over' the edge! The photo doesn't do it justice, the front nearside wheel was off the ground!
