点评:We treated our brother to a 70th Birthday treat of two hours in the 4x4 Land Rover 90. The introduction to the course was excellent with safety of the driver and technical detail of the vehicle and its capabilities.
A full hour of up and down the gravel and mud gradients and cambers causing the driver to stretch his neck and display white knuckles. As passenger in the rear I was bumped about and thank goodness for my thick woolly hat acting as a barrier when hitting the roof!
After a tea (and comfort) break we resumed with an equally testing drive around the 500 acre farm estate taking in swampy and rutty tracks. Fortunately neither sent us down into the water filled ditches.
An excellent treat for any family member who has most things in life but this does test the nerve and skills and takes them out of their comfort zone in a safe and controlled manner.

整整一个小时在砾石和泥泞的坡度和拱度上上下下,驾驶员伸长脖子,关节发白。作为后座乘客,我被颠簸得东倒西歪,幸好我那顶厚厚的毛线帽在撞到屋顶时起到了保护作用!
喝完茶(和休息)后,我们继续在 500 英亩的农场庄园周围进行同样考验性的驾驶,沿途经过沼泽和车辙。幸运的是,我们都没有掉进水沟里。
对于生活中拥有大多数东西的家庭成员来说,这都是一次极好的享受,但这确实考验了他们的勇气和技能,让他们以安全和可控的方式走出舒适区。
