    Thanks for that @Cigar I know how much effort goes into writing up one of these. Much appreciated. Just finished a call out here. -7 and 4am. Burst water cylinder in a thatched cottage. So nice to finish a day on a good note
    Better than reading about that whining ginger lol

    No problem, I wanted to write it up for family and friends, as well as for the forum because of all the info, help and tips I had from forum members.

    A good write up.
    One of the better ones for awhile.
    Stories like this are one of the best parts of this forum.
    There would be more than a few of us who can relate to the knee issues.
    Hope all good now rested up at home.

    Cool report. Cheers for that. Dogs are by far the best companions for a trip like that. Even if they do tax the odd back steak.
