DON’T LEND HUBBY YOUR CAR TO GO FISHING.
OR MAKE SURE YOU USE THE HANDBRAKE.
A few days before Easter and Elisa of Clifton Springs was in the Kyalite State Forests, anticipating a wonderful relaxing few days on the Edwards. When Hubby said he was going up to the Kyalite Boat Ramp to get the boat, well why not?
Why Not indeed. Cars do float but only just long enough to get out into some really deep water. Then you have to ring a vehicle recovery Service and a Deep Water diver to hook-up.
Yep going to need the air hose its deep cold and dark down there.
That’s looks like a car wireless ariel? Yep ‘tis complete with a car and boat trailer.
Elisa could finally see the funny side of it and even laughed when some unforgiving FORD

A long wait till Saturday afternoon, when the diver and rescue vehicle turned up. During that time didn’t the other customers at the Pub hear all the excuses. The ute stalled, it floated, the handbrake was not working, the boat r amp was too steep etc etc
Think the driver just got it wrong, anyway it all ended well.
