One afternoon we decided to go for a drive down on our local beach to let the dog and the son to have a run around on the sand and splash in the water. After 15 minutes or so we were approached by 2 Russian males and their female friend asking whether or not we can pull them out of the sand as they had been stuck for several hours. As we got near we noticed it was an old Nissan Skyline that they had driven into the softest sand I have ever seen in my life. After hitching up the rope from the paj to the skyline and then went around the skyline to see how bad it was bogged. The whole back end of the passenger side was completely buried right up to the tail lights. After 20minutes of digging and placing rocks down for traction we were able to pull the vehicle free from the sand. Once pulled out of the soft sand and back out in the good stuff I then headed over to the hole to see that it came well and truly past my knee caps and if you saw how tall I am you will understand that the hole was half way for a grave.
