we left this morning at 9 am to go for our family summer holiday in lincolnshire. we booked this months ago and i have been buying everything possible since then.  woke this morning very excited, got halfway ther and the water pump went on the jeep. had to get the AA out to tow us home.

hubby going to fix it but dosent look like that will be until at least wednesday. phoned the site and told them what happened and asked to re-book for wednesday for 7 nights and they said they would ring back but no reply as yet.

im so p**!!! off, i was really looking forward to this holiday, now im gutted.

thanks for reading/listening to my rant

bye. jo xx

I know how you must feel.  The same sort of thing happened to us earlier this year, except it was a head gasket followed by an idiot driving into the back of our caravan.

If I were you, I would ring the site again tomorrow.  Make sure they know how upset you all are.  It doesn't hurt to go for the sympathy vote.

Hi Jo, fingers crossed for Weds. We're off tomorrow for a week in Norfolk and I would be so gutted if anything went wrong.

What is it with sods law..??

We're due to go away in a weeks time, and firstly OH's head gasket went, then my exhaust developed a wicked split in it.

Thats the spending money taken a hell of a beating, but hey ho, at least they broke down now, and not while away.
