Default For Sacha - Veddw Incident

Thought you might be interested .....

Visited Veddw again last Monday. There were a couple of coach parties
due.

The coach drive of one party ignored all the warnings and drove up
the lane to drop his passengers at the car park entrance.

He then drove on up the lane.

Realising he was in difficulty, he decided to attempt the 90 degree
bend by the blue front gate and got well and truly stuck. The other
coach driver stepped in to help while we watched. Having got the bus
unstuck after about 15 minutes, rather than reverse they decided to
drive on.

The next bend is over 90 degrees "back".

Half an hour later, the bus was back at the blue gate.

Two hand saws and a petrol pole pruner .......

Nearly another hour later the bus made it back to the main road. With
some lovely gouges in its paintwork and a buckled wheel arch.

Charles and I then spent half an hour clearing up.

The other coach party having been somewhat delayed, Charles made tea!

So some Veddw firsts!

Cheers, Jake
