Bank Holiday Weekend!!!!!!!
We'd fixed the leak and excitedly off we went. No mishaps on way the van went ok.
Had two nights on one site, downside was, no shower and a mingin bog. Decided to leave on homeward journey but managed to get in a site at short notice with facilities to get clean and good loos.
Had a good evening at the local Pub and a lie in. Packed up and decided to have lunch on way home.
Cruising along nicely Mrs wrinkly comfortably doing her crossword when she says I can smell something!!!!!!!!
within seconds of that comment the cab became full of black fumes and I hastily pulled onto the grass verge. The engine had overheated and could see signs of possible head leak. It was at this point that I decided to call the RAC. we are parked precariously half on verge on a straight stretch of fast road, traffic roaring past at alarming speeds.
We were approached by police patrol car who asked are we ok I replied we're expecting a recovery vehicle in about an hour. He seemed happy with that but made a remark which we both found amusing , he said I thought you'd stopped for a cup of tea.!!! my reply was you could say that, it gave us both a laugh.
We decided that as we were stuck there we might as well have a cup of coffee, some music and a visit to the porta loo.
Eventually the RAC bloke arrived he was very nice loaded up old shameful beddy ( shanefull cos she let us down) and we travelled home in style high up in a warm cab with a smooth and powerful engine, We gonna buy one ( we wish)
In conclusion I am convinced that the head gasket has blown, does anyone know where to source one.
