van stopped dead in water

got towed out from a  customer back to his place,got van started straight away,cleaned there windows as normal and they still made me take the money  ;D ;D ;D

give me a pair of wellies and clean dry socks,
then the fun started when I went to drive off, all great at first then I couldn't  get any revs ;D ;D ;D


so after a few house at the furthest part of my round I then clawed home at a speed,where everyone smnailed up behind you  :o :o :o :o

straight to garage and 2 hours later van fixed and £190 lighter

sh-it happens  :D :D :D

Axminster had a lovely Marina - pretty good for four miles inland ! Aside from that no real problems at all. Somerset Levels have taken a beating but to be fair they usually do. Some of the lower roads are excessively potholed where the water has risen underneath but they're not in the best condition usually anyway.

I was there today Ben - about a 15 mile radius generally, though I do go down nearly to Exmouth for family.
