a friend had a call earlier in the wk off a keeper, sayin he was hav in trouble, so we arranged to go dwn to help out, on arrival, the keeper pointed us in the direction of a big wooded area, as we got into the would we could see a fresh 3 holer, didnt look the best spot, as it ran into bank... hopein it wud run to the sides, we collard jc up in he went.. had a listen nothin, gave im ten min, then got a mark 7.4... shit, we decided to take a big wedge out the bank, get to a level n den blip up again.. levelled out n best mark we could get was 4.1, we kept going by this time dark was come in , so the torches came out, the 1st 6ft was clay n then turned to sand, it started to take shape n we got a mark at 2.9. it was at this point we realised that he was more into the bank n we was goin to av to boot in,,we decided to take it deeper n then go in, we took it in n got a mark a mark at 1.8, i was gutted it wasnt lookin good at this stage, it was come in n no 1 really fancied it.. by now it was alf 9 n the dog enterd at 12 30,, we wer nakerd n decided to head bak in the morn i didnt want to leave but after some pursusion i did, on the way home i phoned a very good mate of mine n explained the situation, by now it was 11 my mate said get bak n get a bru , n me n me dad r on our way over.. i was nakerd, but still said ok then, [bANNED TEXT] long the 3 of us was bak in the wood wi fresh torches, [bANNED TEXT] i could do out my mates dad was in n blip in up, 1.8 we agreed he was about a meter down n a bout same in, the situation was bad there werent a lot of talkin going on, i dnt need to mention ne names but my mates dad did somethin special, alot of risk n some excellent shovel work, i could nt thank him enuff, to show im my appreciation i hav bought him a pair of lowa boots which is very little for wat he did in that bad situation.. a very big thanks.. after an hour of some very difficult shovel work, i fired the bleeper up n my mates dad dad crawled [bANNED TEXT] into the bottom corner of not a nice place to be, he then said .3 into bank, i got the shovel to him, he proded the side twice n he was in, i was buzzin, i saw im strike out for the dog. this was a good sign 4 me as i was unsure about the outcome,, drag me out he repeated , i had him by the ankles n whipped him out, i grabbed the dog, it was a releive for me as this dog means every thin to me, 1 very tired dog, .. thanks to every 1 who helped out , it was a day i will never 4 get... n thumps up to the dog
