Video 57 - Stakes and ladders - Taster (rubber waders, jeans, pond, fall in, soaking wet, woman)

The full (16mins 55secs) HD version of this video is available to stream or download from: https://www.wetandmuddy.com. Andrea was checking the young trees that she had planted earlier in the season. They were growing well, but quite a few needed wooden stakes and plastic sleeves to protect them from the wind and the rabbits. As she circled the small pond, she was thinking back to a video she’d seen on Facebook; it had shown how the fire service had used a ladder to rescue some holiday-makers from tidal mud flats. How fun would it be to put a ladder across this pond and see if she could balance across it? So, having gauged the length she needed, she returned to the barn for a ladder and some waders. Then the fun began! It turned-out that if the ladder is located firmly at each end, then crossing it is easy – you can walk across or crawl across. But, it also turned-out that if one end of the ladder is wobbly, then you get very wet, very quickly! :)
