130 Overland Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 After posting 'These idiots give us all a bad name' yesterday it is pleasing to have some positive press.... On a clip on BBC West news at lunchtime today is a piece about a Defender going into deep water to drive to and rescue an elderly gent stuck in his car. The camera views through the Defender windscreen and shows the gent being assisted out of his car through a window by his rescuer standing on the Defender front bumper. Well done chaps, some positive press! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sirocco Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 That's about 2 miles from my house. I went out for a look around last night after being away for the weekend and the River Avon is as high as I have ever seen it. Down by our favorite pub (The Lock Keeper) the water is about 4-6ft under the bridge. We usually kayak under it when its closer to 15ft. The pub is submerged along with 2-3 cars in the carpark and the little marina there is also full. Well done that man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
