Caption Competition Mk III
So, you start digging here and when you reach America they push the tank in and it arrives right way up.
Ohhh, I see it now. I DID have the plans for the dummy tank upside down !
So fellow syndicate members, we have 15 minutes, equipment consisting of 2 x 10 metre ropes, 4 x 2.4 metre planks, a 3 metre square tarp, 8 barrels and one inverted tank. The task is to right the tank and cross the imaginary 3 metre gully marked by the white a tape over there. A further restriction is everyone must cross on the tank and only three persons can be in contact with the tank at any time.
