You have to laugh
Broke down at 10:00 with Caravan in tow
11:00 on my way, 1/2 mile later broke down again
3 hours later recovery truck arrives - after loading discovers no electric hookup for caravan
Over an hour later a hookup arrives
Then an hour ago the recovery truck breaks down
Awaiting a new truck and still only as far as Grantham
