A disaster this morning when we tried to start off on our holiday to Yorkshire I could not move the caravan after getting out on the road and hooking up to the car we could not move on investigating found that the o/s mover roller was jammed on After many attempts to release it I gave up and got in touch with the manufactures and am still waiting for a reply

I have now cancelled our holiday and have informed Brian and Eve of the situation I cant tell you just how much that we our disappointed

A couple of years ago I had the caravan mover converted from manual to electric as I found it difficult to engage the rollers I now wish I had left things as they were

Still worth going if you can get it sorted Derek, hopefully you will get an answer quite quickly.

I don't suppose AA homestart would be too impressed if you called them about it

How dissapointing for you. I was quite envious when I saw your plans. Look on the bright side, your bad luck could have happened when away from the comfort and convenience of your home.
I hope you can soon get it sorted and be on your way.

That's a real shame Derek and Lillian. Fingers crossed it can be sorted relatively quickly.
