Back in my day, page-240

So resignates with me..

When I was 12, dad and mum had to go to the big smoke for medical reasons for a brother.

Dad said drive all you like but don't go down the railway road.. ( I had never been there before).

Well curiosity killed the cat .

Two hours later..

Drove up the railway road, then came to a locked gate.

There was no way to do three point turn, high bank to the left and a severe drop-off to a gully on the right.

Tried my best.

Ended up sliding down the drop-off and being severely bogged..

I was so sick with fear..

Well a long story short..

Dad got the forklift (Very large hyster) from the sawmill.

The forklift got bogged ..

Dad got the very large articulated Chamberlain crane.. To pull out the forklift, to pull out the Ute....

My backside has the historical evidence
