waiting for AA recovery

Andy H:
Sat on hard shoulder of M25 just past the M23

First AA van has been out and agreed that it is probably the water pump on SWMBO'S Galaxy tdi

How long do you think it will be before the lorry comes to scoop us up?

How long to get back to Cornwall?

And will it make any difference that we have a 2 year old and a 3 year old asleep in the back?

How long do you think it will be before the lorry comes to scoop us up? About 3 hours!  ::)

How long to get back to Cornwall? You might get back for breakfast!   :P

And will it make any difference that we have a 2 year old and a 3 year old asleep in the back? Nope!  >:(

Sounds like a complete nightmare Andy. Good luck!!  :)

Andy B:
Good luck  .....  :y

Doctor Gollum:
It won't help, but the waterpump should have been changed with the timing belt...

Don't expect to get all the way to Cornwall in one hit unless they bring you a hire car...  :'(

Kevin Wood:
Bu66er! Sorry to hear that. :(

That seems to be the way these days. They send out the bloke in the van, who's equipped to fix nothing, to make sure it's not user error, then they've met their response time target so can take their time getting a useful vehicle to you. :(

Still, kids asleep in a vehicle in the hard shoulder should damned well make you a priority.
