   Hi all   
      
   Back in about February I pulled some folk out of where they had sunk   
   into the grass.  Has rained so much here and we had no clearly   
   identifiable Spring.   
   Was funny walking along inventing a "Wurzels like" song about taking my   
   rope for a walk (cider-drinking world - including famous "I am a cider   
   drinker" song).   
   Want to find a light block can attach to vehicle being towed, end of   
   rope to fixed object, so getting 2:1 advantage with rope attached to   
   towing-point of towing car.   
   Only had 1:1 then - but mercifully I had a long coil of rope so I could   
   tow from the tarmac some distance away.   
      
   Was at an event where the booked venue had fallen-through and an   
   enterprise at an airfield had stepped in - bless them.
