Fabulous weekend with a twist at the end.

We have visited Grafham Water site many time and love the location, spotless facilities and the relatively small club site. Again, we were not disappointed with our visit a lovely two days meeting up with friends and the weather was kind to us once more. All went very smoothly until our day of departure. We have been caravanning for nearly 10 years and hope we have mastered all the set up and breakdown. We connected the caravan to the car, carried out all of the usual tests to see if the lights worked and the car raised up on the jockey wheel and off we set. Upon leaving the site and going over the speed humps the caravan disconnected from the car with a very loud bang the breakaway cable did its job, and we came to a standstill. All of a sudden, we were surrounded by fellow members and Andrew the warden appeared asking if we were all ok. Andrew took control of the situation asking fellow members to help with pushing the caravan to a safe place and assessing the damage, we realized we were not going anywhere as the electric connector, breakaway cable and jockey wheel needed to be replaced. We were booked into Stamford Site to meet up with more friends that same day and Julie (warden) contacted the site to explain what had happened and that we would be staying for another night at Grafham Water and not going to Stamford. We were extremely fortunate that there is a very good caravan dealer 20 miles down the road and we managed to buy the replacement items from them to enable us to travel home the following day. All we can say is a very big thank you to both Andrew and Julie for helping with our troublesome situation, they went above and beyond to help us, and nothing was any trouble at all.
