My other half has got an autograss car (which he actually doesn't race very often) but he bought it with a trailer, and on second trip out to race it, we were driving round the motorway, when
BANG! And the wheel from the trailer went sailing past us at about 60mph...... down the road. And we were left sitting on the motorway. Couldn't think what to do as it was only a 2 wheeled trailer, so phoned the police who turned up and were particularly unhelpful, apart from telling us we had to move it. Alex phoned RAC who are his breakdown people who said they couldn't do anything, but I have AA cover, and they were really good and sent out a lorry which was able to put the trailer and racecar on it and take it back home.
Love the story about Hector Cameron!
We once had trouble where people were stealing ducks locally. We always shut our ducks in at night, although they free ranged during the day. Anyway, these people must have been trying to get our ducks, but they opened our billy pen door instead, and were petrified as he didn't like strangers. They left in a hurry and shut our big gates on the front drive behind them, we never used to shut those gates, so it was a shock to come back to find them shut and the billy running about.
