Glad you're ok.
I did a similar thing in SWMBO's car about 8 years ago...she still hasn't forgiven me!

Didn't you have a parang in the car just in case? Sheesh, call yourself a bushcrafter.
Really glad you're OK

I'm very glad we can all joke about this now...
I bet it wasn't too funny when it happened.
Good that you're in one piece but where's the nettle cordage and the Kochanski winch to haul the car out?

Really felt for you when I saw this on the Northood meet thread... what an absolute bottomer! I dunno, some folk just can't wait to get into the woods but you should have waited till you got to a decent one rather than taking the fast track into that piddling litte thing
It's brilliant to be able to comment tongue-in-cheek. Realllllly glad you're ok, sad to not be seeing you there, good news that you've lived to be seen sometime else.

Cheers all. Feeling a little stiff this morning but glad I am feeling something rather than being on a cold table lol.
The emergency services were fantastic and were on the scene so quick. And loads of people stopped to help. Not such a bad place we live in.
Got to go recover my kit from the car, been stressing the recovery company lose my bushcrafter kit all night lol.
My first thought when I was stuck in the car was I was going to have make some nettle cordage to pull myself out lol.
Buckshot, would love to come, just have a car issue at the moment lol.

I was going to over take a lorry, but then as I did I saw some white arrows come up so I decided to pull back in, but it was wet and the rear of the car is light and lost grip. The back end snaked out and ended up hitting the bank on the other side of the road and flipped the car over.
Was one heck of an adrenaline rush, and was oddly very calm when i all happened... maybe cos it went so quick I had not other choice but to be calm. Lol

I had the very same feeling when we had our accident. We hit a wall on a country road and rolled 3 times stopping on the roof. Everything was odly and eerily calm throughout the whole thing.
